Thanks to all you folks for the recognition, it means a lot. It is a joy working with you here on the Elecraft reflector.
Believe it or not, I really enjoy solving puzzles, and that is what I think troubleshooting is all about - it is a puzzle to be solved. I have had the good fortune to obtain a solid grounding in electrical principles when I was just a teenager - thanks to the good help I received from more experienced hams in my local ham radio club - these guys all built their own transmitters, so I did the same, but only with their help and guidance. These were not kits, but you went out and found the parts, then built from scratch, wound your own coils too, no toroids in those days! (Toroids are easier) I had my share of problems and mistakes, but I had good help ready at hand. My help to those on the reflector is part payment for the efforts of those Elmers I had back then. Most are no longer around so I cannot thank them personally, but they were instrumental to me in launching a professional career as well as a life-long hobby, and I in turn pass on help to others. Life is good, let's keep it that way. 73, Don W3FPR > -----Original Message----- > > > This is a thread I can comment on.
