Crusader Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 I havent done much electronics except for making lamps at school etc. But i do do a bit on computers. I have read most of the basic articles but i dont understand most of the big diagrams on the circuts in the projects page. Can someone reccomend a project that i can do on this site or another. I found some i could read but its things like an am transmitter which seems pointless to build as i dont really know what i could do with an am transmitter except use it along with some other things make a pirate radio station.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP Posted January 21, 2006 Report Share Posted January 21, 2006 There are some instrumentation circuits in our projects section such as power supplies, etc- that might be helpful. The nice thing about building these is that you have equipment for your workbench when you are done. A real plus for someone who is new to electronics.MP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

awright Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Consider building some electronics kits from one of the many kit suppliers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Hi Awright,I thought that I am an old geezer and you must be even older than me. ;DI agree that building kits is a good way to learn electronics in addition to studying the facts.My 1st few kits were an audio power amplifier, an FM tuner, an oscilloscope and a transistorized voltmeter. Then I progressed to building projects from magazine articles.I have souped-up my old 'scope and use it nearly every day since it was built about 43 years ago.

Staigen Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 HeheMy lab is a mess. You don't want to look there.Looks like mine then ;D ;D . Of course we all want to see it, and that goes for all others too, send up a few photos of your lab! Maybee we should start a new topic first, named " My Lab" or something!//Staigen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 That’s a nice idea Staigen! I think Audioguru should be first out on this one (as he always is)! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 I'm too busy celebrating so I can't take pics.Horray, my son is moving out! ;DHe is taking his digital camera with him and his share of the cost of my high-speed cable internet connection.

ante Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 Excuses, excuses, now I have heard them all!Does this mean you are going to shut up,.. I mean shut down or just running at a lower speed? ;D ;DBTW, I am sure your son will let you use the camera one last time for a good purpose like this! ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audioguru Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 I'm helping my son pack now then tomorrow I'll help him move, then celebrate. ;DI just took another look at my lab: EEK! It's a bigger mess than I thought.I might get slower and cheaper cable internet so I can continue chatting with all you good guys. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ante Posted February 4, 2006 Report Share Posted February 4, 2006 I was worried there for a while, not any more! ;D Still I think you should take a picture of your lab and post it here. Maybe your lab isn’t that messy after all when starting to compare with others! You might even sleep better knowing that someone else got a bigger disaster on the workbench! ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
