“In time, you may recognize your electronics workbench as your greatest teacher. Bench experiments involve us thinking about and measuring our circuits so we know what’s happening instead of relying too much on folklore, guessing and copying others. Designing and/or simulating circuits with software can enhance your learning but does not obviate the need to spend time in the trenches with meters, wires and solder.” Todd, VE7BPO
Like most of you, I am a frequent visitor to Todd’s site. It seems like every time I go there, I learn something new and come away inspired. Yesterday I was looking at the page that describes his philosophy of homebrewing. Check it out. Good stuff: http://www.qrp.pops.net/info.asp
He also has a very nice collection of Java Script Applets for Homebrewers:
