Based in Indianapolis, SAMS Technical Publishing has grown to become the world’s largest provider of consumer electronics manuals. The founder, Howard W. Sams, identified a critical need in the market for service technicians to access schematics and service guidelines for the products they were repairing. This initiative set a standard for repair practices that countless repair shops across the country have relied on for decades.
SAMS Technical Publishing continues this legacy by adding new manuals monthly, covering the latest in television technology, including HDTV, plasma, and LCD monitors.
