My name is Raphaël, French guy, not as young as I wish,
Not that bad in English and electronics but could be better.
I fix things, everything, most of the time, I try and fail, from a car to a smartphone, from my children broken toys, to my parents computer (on which they also messed up), I try to make things last a little bit longer than what is expected nowadays by manufacturers.
IRL I'm a "heating system installer" specialized in heating pumps, air conditioning systems... So I have to fix some electronics on those systems too for my clients.
I try to stay up to date with hard and soft evolution but things goes fast.
I recently bought a T48 programmer to fix a dell computer on which the bios seems corrupted. but I discovered two elligible chip, then discovered the existence of the Intel EM chip by reading some post here, so I thought it was maybe a good idea to register.
Thanks for help provided here.

My name is Sergey, and I've been a radio engineer for over thirty years. For as long as I can remember, I've been drawn to the hum of circuits, the faint crackle of a radio signal, and the thrill of bringing lifeless electronics back to life. My workshop, a cozy space filled with shelves of resistors, capacitors, soldering irons, and vintage radios, is where I spend most of my days.
Each morning, I unlock the door to find something new waiting for me. Sometimes it's an old transistor radio with sentimental value, brought in by someone who remembers listening to it with their grandparents. Other times, it's a more modern device—a broken amplifier or a malfunctioning stereo system. Every piece of equipment tells a story, and it's my job to make sure that story continues.
One of my favorite recent projects was restoring a 1950s tube radio for a local collector. The parts were hard to find, and it took weeks of careful soldering, testing, and even building some components from scratch. When I finally powered it on, the warm glow of the tubes and the clear sound of music felt like magic.
But it's not just about repairs. I'm always experimenting, testing new circuits, and building small devices for fun. Recently, I designed a compact FM transmitter that I use to broadcast music in my workshop. It's nothing fancy, but it brings me joy to tinker and innovate.
What I love most about my work is sharing it with others. Neighbors often stop by with questions or to watch me work, and I'm always happy to teach them something new. Schools occasionally invite me to give talks, and I encourage young people to explore electronics—it's a field where creativity and logic come together beautifully.
