Established in 1943, Santa Cruz Radio & TV has been serving the Santa Cruz area since before televisions existed. In the 1960’s, Frank Windt Sr. used his electronics training learned in the Air Force and started repairing radios and televisions under the name Windt TV. In 1988, Frank Windt Jr. purchased Santa Cruz Radio & TV from a competitor and combined Windt TV and Santa Cruz Radio & TV to become Windt’s Santa Cruz Radio & TV. And then in 2024, We changed our name to Windt Audio Video Solutions (WAVS) to better align with our current service offerings. Only WAVS can provide you with the most genuine service and support in this area.
