Don't push too hard. Even though dad fixed some TVs up until I was six or seven, I didn't gain an interest in electronics until after high school at age 17. As a youth I had Lego, Tinker Toys, and Erector Sets. All were educational in various ways. Exposure to various hands-on things will let him find what he likes. Even simple computer programming will be beneficial. 73, Nate, N0NB -- "The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible worlds. The pessimist fears this is true."
