    Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

    Good morning All,
    I got my first soldering iron in 1953 at aged 7, and was fixing valve (tube) TV's by age 12. Continued as a very serious hobbyist thru discrete transistors and then IC's, and picked up an EE degree along the way. But got distracted by programming and became a professional SW designer - worked on product prototypes and enjoyed arguing with the HW designers LOL. Now I'm retired and dusting off my practical electronic skills again. Current target is several SMPS in TVs and PVRs - I've ordered an in circuit ESR meter kit.

    Does anyone know where to get a schematic for the 6709900016C aka 68709D0006B PSU board? I can probably get by without but it would be nice to have. TIA.

        Hello to you all, a short introduction on my account. I hail from the Netherlands, 45 yrs old, and I hobby around with all kinds of tech. Low as wel as high, from building my own house, to repairing the kid's bicycles, to fixing my mother-in-law's Cuckoo clock, to plumbing, to electrics, basically anything that requires tools has my interest. This is not to say that I'm an expert on everything, but I learn quickly. Hoping to learn some new stuff in this forum!

            Dear All, I am a young and enthusiastic beginner in repairing gadgets for myself. I am an economist, but everyone has a hobby , mine is to find bargains and hopefully make them use able, to save the planet from some junk. I have registered to the site, because I have a sharp quattron tv for approx a year now (bought as second hand), and in this month it started to develop an interesting habit: that after an operation of half hour it switches off .

              Hi everyone!
              I am a little shy, but computers/phones/cameras/consoles/cars/buildings/audio gear repair/modifying has always been my passion. my strongest points are soldering and smd work, but finding a fault when there is no sign of damage or burn marks is my weak point.

              I have been reading this forum for awhile and everyday it seems more and more that this is my place to be

              Kind regards,

                                    Hi all,

                                    I am a support engineer for a hosting company. I have no background in electronics or electronics repair.

                                    BUT

                                    My wife claims I am the cheapest man alive who refuses to throw anything away. Hence my being here learning how to work with/on TV's and Monitors.

                                    Thanks,
