DEAR SUN SPOTS: Would you please repeat your list of old radio repairers again? Thank you for your great information. — Carole, Livermore
ANSWER: At the present time, the only name I have is Kyle Stilkey in Sabattus. He works out of his home and another reader wrote that he repairs just about any electronic device. She found him to be professional and knowledgeable. His phone number is 619-0776.

DEAR SUN SPOTS: Is baking your passion? Want to make a difference in the lives of feral cats? Organizers of Tommy’s Feral Feline Friends 4th of July Bake Sale & Bottle Drive are looking for bakers and baked goods. The event will take place at Family Dollar, 11 Middle Road, Sabattus on Friday, July 5, and Saturday, July 6, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. It would be great if we also had bakers who would like to prepare some sugar-free and gluten-free treats.
Join us in helping make this 4th of July weekend event a memorable one for Tommy’s babies. Your baked goods, bottles and cans, and donations will go a long way toward helping us continue to support the forgotten feral cat colonies that cross our paths every day. They need food, warmth, veterinarian care, and so much more.
With your help and support, we can continue this crucial mission every day. Your generosity is greatly appreciated. Donations are always appreciated and can be sent to Tommy’s Feral Feline Friends, P.O. Box 274, Greene, ME 04236 or go to https://www.tommysferalfelinefriends.com/.
