1960\u2019s while still a teenager, I was very interested in both electronics and music. I played String Bass in the School Orchestra and hung out at the local Radio Shack on the weekends. I always hoped I might get a job in a TV repair shop. My vision was that the TV shop owner would train me and when he retired, I would take over the business. Then I would have a business of my own.<\/p><p>One of my first jobs out of high school was at a grocery store as a stocker back when checkers memorized all the prices and punched them into the register manually. Of course I was still hanging out at Radio Shack when I could. Finally, Mike the manager said \u201cwhy don\u2019t you come to work for Radio Shack and get paid for all the time your spending here?\u201d Well, I did and was in working bliss.<\/p><p>In 1969 after only four months, I was drafted into the Army. There, I had the opportunity to formally study Electronics and I soaked it up like a sponge. Finally I was learning what all those little blue, orange and brown electronic things actually were. More importantly, I learned what they did and how electronics worked.<\/p><\/div> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-arrow\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-date-new\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><div >1960&#039;s<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-repeater-item-0624c8e uael-timeline-field animate-border out-view\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-widget uael-timeline-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-marker\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"timeline-icon-new out-view-timeline-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fa fa-calendar\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-day-new uael-day-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-inner-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-hide uael-date-inner\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><p >1971<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-heading-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"uael-timeline-heading\">The Music World is Introduced to Quadraphonic<\/h3> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-desc-content\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/bentonelectronics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/history1.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-1543\" src=\"https:\/\/bentonelectronics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/history1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"337\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bentonelectronics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/history1.jpg 337w, https:\/\/bentonelectronics.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/history1-300x202.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 337px) 100vw, 337px\" \/><\/a>In 1971 I returned to Radio Shack and soon became the Manager of my own store.

I started Benton Electronics in October of that year and shortly after that I started playing in a local top 40 band.<\/p><p>In the beginning of my business I was able to get by because of both incomes but after about 4 years the Company started to really take off. In fact so did the band! By around 1987 I decided to quit the band business and focus entirely on Benton Electronics.<\/p><p>We now average nearly 1000 service calls a year!<\/p><\/div> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-arrow\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-date-new\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><div >1978<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-repeater-item-ff8d8b2 uael-timeline-field animate-border out-view\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-widget uael-timeline-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-marker\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"timeline-icon-new out-view-timeline-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<i aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"fa fa-calendar\"><\/i>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-day-new uael-day-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-events-inner-new\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-date-hide uael-date-inner\"><div class=\"inner-date-new\"><p >1987<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-heading-text\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"uael-timeline-heading\">You Can Still Hear the Music<\/h3> \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-timeline-desc-content\"><p>Also, in 1987, after leaving the band scene, I began to get more involved in Church.
