(b) Each manufacturer of receiving equipment doing business in this state shall make available to such service representative current service information and an adequate supply of replacement parts. Such information and parts shall be provided by distributors located in the state within thirty days of the date of order and shall remain available for not less than four years after the date of the final sale of any discontinued model or type of receiving equipment.

(c) Unless the parties otherwise agree, any services or repairs arising under such express warranty shall be performed within the state if competent and qualified repair or service facilities are available.

(d) In any such sale of receiving equipment having a value of fifty dollars or more, the manufacturer shall provide to the buyer service literature and legible schematics or pictorials including, but not limited to, wave forms and ohmic, voltage and wattage ratings.
