Hi to all!

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

"Hello. My name is Ron, and I'm an electronics junkie". (Oops, wrong introduction for this kind of self-help group).

... Actually a retired electronics engineer from a major defense contractor, now living in the FL Keys. To keep myself busy when not fishing, I've been dumpster-diving to find & repair PCs/laptops and TVs. So far, I've built or resurrected a bunch of PCs and several LCD TVs, including Dynex, Samsung, Sony and Vizio. The Vizio was a 65" 3D major-score, only a bad TAB on one corner of the screen.

My latest treasure is a 50" Seiki LED tv, and I'm stumped. I can't find much on it, so will ask for the group's help in the Troubleshooting forum.

"Thanks for listening".

Intro, live in Texas. Grew up with a mother who was a programmer but always needed help with computer hardware so I started helping. Went from 1 5 1/4 to two until all the way to building a PC from other parts and now moving into other electronics realms. Still learning details about other areas besides PC's and enjoy reading posts on this page.

Have always loved "tinkering" with electronics. No better feeling than getting a $20 bargain and fixing it yourself. Hope to learn alot

Hey guys, I'm Tony from Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

I'm just a hobbyist, that likes to fix electronics and build custom things.

So far, I'm still a novice but for my first project, I built a wifi-connected light switch.

I'm just looking to join this community to get your feedback on certain problems I'm stuck on with electronics. Looking through some of the posts, I see that this is a serious forum that I would be happy to contribute to

Best,

Tony

Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

Gday.

I'm a former computer tech, now developer.
Electronics is a hobby. Most of the time I have these ideas of things I'd like to do but don't know enough.

I found this forum as I recently got a TV and the RF input has broken off and I just want to replace that component. As we know a lot of electronics is just throw away and replace (at least at board level). I hope to learn and be able to actually follow through with some of my ideas.
