    I had some computer experience back in '86. It was all DOS. Not to long ago, I thought it was something just to do minor things like reformat and replacing drives. I'm learning hardware mainly. Though I am dabbling in site building.
    Personal about me, I'm a security . I love to read, ride normal and want to learn to . I;m, 52 glad to add.

        We are a computer shop in Northern Alberta Canada and this forum has been a God send for us. So many defective boards come through the door every week and now we can help people fix them rather than the ridiculous cost of replacing the MB. Thank you all so much.

                    I wish you all a wonderful day. Please let me introduce myself. I am LEECH666 from Germany.

                    Although I have been a member of this forum since January 2021, I have mainly lurked in the shadows and only participated in the forum by reading when I saw a benefit. For the most part, I've used badcaps.net as a resource for repair knowledge and well, bad capacitors, and to broaden my horizons in that regard. What prompted me to post my first introduction here is that I could use some help with a Grundig TV repair for a friend. I will also create a separate post for this. I have a degree in electrical engineering but have never really been in the repair business and have only ever repaired what I and my friends needed.

                    My tool list includes the following items:
                    - 3 channel Pace MBT 250 (de-)soldering station with different soldering handles and tips
                    - Weller WSD-81 soldering station
                    - A cheapo ATTEN 858D+ hot air soldering station
                    - A couple of Digital Multimeters, Fluke 87 IV, UNI-T UT-61E plus some other ones.
                    - (brand new) Rigol DHO804 scope
                    - Some not so great Lab PSUs, the best one is probably a small form factor Manson 30V/3.2A one, all the other ones are shovelware
                    - an old an crappy tone generator (waveform generator)
                    - self built dim bulb tester
                    - a cheap Chinese Atorch digital electronic load, up to 150W but I don't trust it further than 100W
                    - a couple of these Chinese component testers which most likely were all based on the transistor tester project which was developed by the people on the German microcontroller.net forums.
                    - a resin and two FDM 3d printers

                    I currently lack an isolation transformer but I am looking into building or buying one for future repair jobs.

                    In general I would also describe me as a jack of all trades though I am lacking in some departments. I am an okay electronical alrounder but not great.

                    I am looking forward for more direct communication with the nice members of this forum.

                    Cheers,
                    LEECH666

                      Hi all,
                      I have read over the past several days many discussions of this enriching forum. I decided to participate. I have several laptops with blocked bios. I could already, thanks to the information of the forum unlock several simple situations. I would like to go one step further. Thank you while waiting for everyone's efforts.😁

                                          Hi there,

                                          Stumbled across this forum in my amateur TV repair endeavours, hoping to avail myself of some of you clever chaps.
                                          and try and keep some old cheap junk out of landfill along the way 😂☺
