I'll play... My name is Larry, I'm a 25 year old husband and father in aerospace production.

I'm decently new to component level repair, I have done PC repair at the novice level for years (software and hardware). Recently I have begun television repair. I have managed repairs to DLP TVs, and recently did a cap replacement on a plasma. I own a multimeter and soldering iron, and have no fear!

I have no technical training, but I can learn new skills rapidly if I have instruction.
