Since this thread got necro'd, I went through it and checked it all out...
Couple of takeaways for me were:

There are people that work on Campag, and there are people that are truly great with it (speak it). Beat- Eric @ East West Bikes in Fullerton has to be one of the best locally. He's all campag, all the time. Your mechanics were probably great mechanics, but unfortunately it seems like it does require a special touch sometimes, especially with certain frames.

Takeaway two is just confirmation of something I already knew: all pretense aside, Shimano is just as good if not better than Campag, and the idea that people equate chorus to DA is pure folly.

I do miss my thumb shifters with campag tho.
