Hello all,

Hello everyone ... Doug here!

I'm glad I stumbled across this site while researching a problem with my TV.

I'm from central Tennessee, retired, with time to tinker with electronics that don't work. I like to learn and research as a hobby on just about all subject matters.

Before retirement I spent 35 years in aerospace working in electronics manufacturing.

Thanks!
