    Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

    Well Hello all. My name is Jordan, from Rochester NY.... weather sucks right now, but thats the winters here. I am joining like many others as we have something to fix. Im big into fixing up my own stuff as it saves a lot of money. Also feels good fixing something yourself. I will also try to give some of my own help and input if I see I can. I wont just mooch off the site. Have a good day every one.

          Hi there folks,

          I'm a student who loves to tinker, and who doesn't have the money to throw electronics away before trying to fix them. I'm usually successful too, but TVs are a bit beyond my experience. I'm hoping some of the wisdom here will rub off on me.

          Cheers.

                      Hi everyone. I've got some recent experience fixing a DAB radio and a CTX monitor. I read some posts here that helped me fix the monitor so I thought i'd try and share what I've learned.

                          Hi, 5kippy here. Just found this site and the knowledge contained within is extremely helpful, for myself, being a total noob when it comes to electronics. I am in my early 50's and semi-retired and live near Brisbane, Australia.

                          Keep up the good work guys.

                            Hey there folks. I have been taking things apart to see how they work for about 27 years now. I started off with a Mickey Mouse calculator that my parents gave me when I was 7. I watched the Flintstones and saw Wilma using a calculator that had a tiny prehistoric bird in there wearing an accountants visor and working everything out long hand then sticking a tiny stone tablet out the slot with the answers on it. I didn't expect to find a tiny prehistoric bird inside the Mickey Mouse calculator because it was 1987 after all, but I was dying to see what was in there figuring out 2+2=4 for me. The calculator didn't work when I put it back together and I earned the nick name "destructo". Now at 33 years old I am finally starting college courses for network operations, and delving deeper into my hobby, my biggest source of frustration, and my passion, Computers.

                                Hello all,
                                I've been repairing CRT monitors & TVs for years as a hobby. All that fun has pretty much dried up so I thought I'd give LCD's a try.
