Ms. Barbara,
Last time I checked, Melco had about 45 contract technicians.  This doesn't 
mean there is at least one in each state.  Some states have more than one tech 
and others don't have any.  I cover about 3.5 to 4 states myself.  And from 
what I hear, Melco lost 4 techs for 2009.  It's a combination of things but 
mostly, if there isn't enough work to keep up busy, we seek out other types of 
employment.
What happen to Mike Malmin.  His wife works at Melco as well.  Did they move??  
Or did you move??
I thought you were in Kansas??
Herman Wilson is a very nice guy.  I know him well.  Yes, he does travel to 
other states but then again, so do a lot of other techs too.  Just like myself. 
 I'm willing to go to just about any state if my schedule permits and the 
customer is willing to cover the travel expense.  While you are under warranty 
(90 days) Melco is responsible for covering the travel charges no matter where 
you live in the US but that part of the warranty expires after the first three 
months.  Of course this is common for just about all the embroidery companies 
out there.
Just curious, if a Melco certified tech is determined not to be close enough to 
purchase an Amaya, what would be your next brand of choice?  Meaning, what 
other company has representation closer to you?
I have to say, it's very wise of you guys to be doing your homework before you 
buy.  Most people don't think about the importance of a tech until they need a 
tech.  And to make things worse, they aren't considering the cost of a service 
call in the prices they charge their customers.  Embroidery companies recommend 
putting $50 - $100 bucks aside each month per head/machine for that inevidable 
service call.  If you don't need the service call in one year, you're doing 
good.  If you don't need a service call in two years, consider taking a luxury 
cruise with the extra money.
As of now, I don't see anyone in the state of Kansas that is Melco certified 
but that doesn't mean someone recently became a tech and I don't know about it. 
 Of course that would also mean that tech would be a rookie too.
I'm really wondering what happen to Mike Malmin.
