You mean, my soldering and assembling a half dozen Radio Shack kits (from the Crown Street store) while I was in junior high and high school, my ability to take completely apart and properly reassemble outboard motors and lawnmower engines, and my A's and B's in algebra, geometry, chemistry, calculus, and physics in high school wouldn't have done it for me? Damn! Then I guess I would have had to go to college and not join the navy. Drats! Did you actually understand how those "kits" worked and how to find which part was bad when they didn't? If I showed you a wave form, could you identify the circuit that created it? |

My dad knew and he sorta showed me at his shop, or one of his moonlighting part-timers did (he had a couple of guys who were senior techs at Sikorsky). I didn't say I had the knowledge of a trained electronics tech, but I am sure I could have learned if I wanted to do so. I did "ace" physics, calc, and chem in high school, and these were all AP courses taught in small classes by first-rate, no-nonsense teachers. I'm sure you had first rate teachers. Problem is you were a 3rd rate learner. |

You, on the other hand, seemingly did not have what it took to get into an open admission community college. |
