    Re: New Members - please post your introductions here

    Hi All,

    I'm Nick, from London, England. Mainly specialize in Photography, Videography, Lighting & Rigging, but I'll assemble PCs and relays as part of my work and tinker with the odd bit of broken electronics until I either fix it or trash it for good

    Look forward to talking to you all!

        Good Morning! from the Philippines islands. I'm here a novice to learn from the masters, hopefully become better in electronics repair. I first tasted electricity at 6 y/o while plugging in the TV's power cord awkwardly. Now wondering why I'm still here lol

          Hello,

          I am from Melbourne in Australia. I am an old dog always learning new tricks. I have a go at repairing most things but electronics is new for me. I guess my soldering skills always held me back....

              Hi everyone! Shout out from Seattle. My TV is probably dead, but I'm here for some help and to contribute! I've repaired a sony bravia lcd tv and am now onto a samsung, but I am lost in my own diagnosis! I graduated from UMD as a computer engineer and have some electrical engineering background. Hopefully we can all help each other here! Thanks for having me.

                Just want to enter
                and if you wouldn't mind to keep this thread "clean" let's try to keep the the chitchat (i.e. Even the welcome to the board replies) to a minimum or this thread may get to 100 pages fast

                So i'll start things off :

                My name is petabyte and i'm a forum junkie. :oops: i've been off the wagon for a number of years and countless times i've tried to stop but it's useless.. I need to feed my learning addiction.. :!:

                Now just a bit about me.. I'm a fairly secretive guy in terms of privacy on the net.. Especially when the things you write are visable to anyone with a net connection. But i love to share the info and knowledge i have, so that's why i'm here, to share and learn.

                My formal education is that of an electronic engineer and i held a field service position with a firm for over 20 years.. That job is gone now along with company car and laptop <cry> oh well..
                So needless to say (but i will) i've always tinkered with things.. Yes, a hacker.. (too bad that term lost it's orignal meaning) a hardware hacker mostly.. Hacking fixes in whatever i find that breaks.. (except for cars, i have friends for that) i got started a little late into the computers, my first box was an ibm pc-xt with a whopping 10meg hd,blazing fast 4.66mhz 8086 processor, 640k mem running dos 3.3.. Man was i cool back then.. :roll: Nevermind..

                So these days, i'm forced to be a software guy as well.. As i fix pc's for friends and that usually means cleaning virus/trojan/adware and reinstalling os's.. Yeah hardware breaks but not that often :cry: So as a result, i keep up on my software knowledge by visting a few security forums.. And trolling around a few hardware forums as well.

                Now i found this place from a thread at motherboards.org/forums
                where i've been hanging out lately.. It's a nice friendly place with some pretty smart people.. Mostly, of course, it's about mobo's.. So this person mentioned badcaps.net and i recalled reading articles a year or so ago about the faulty caps and was curious as to what you guys were up to.. And i said "w00t.. They have a forum"..

                And so now.. You're stuck with me :p

                so what's your story ? Come on.. Give it up..
                hellllooo

                                I am trying to make a post in the appropriate forum but the site still will not let me post. I can't PM anyone so this is my next best approach.

                                How long does it take to be able to post an issue? I'm genuinely trying to get some assistance. Thanks.

                                          Hi, JimWH here. I joined in order to get some information about repairing my LG 47 inch LED TV. It looks like there is a lot of good information on this site so I'm looking forward to getting the information I need and using this site in the future.
                                          Thanks,
