I started electronics a loooong time ago (I'm 62 now and I started when i was 13 - you do the maths!)I started electronics a loooong time ago (I'm 62 now and I started when I was 13 - you do the maths!).

I chose to go into accountancy, and until recently was working on a solid state oscilloscope - THAT was really interesting, 1 transformer to supply several different voltage rails - and they all worked.

Hello Themisive - and Welcome to diyAudio!

Most of us here could use a good accountant because we have fooled ourselves into thinking we are saving money with this little hobby of ours - but in fact wind up spending stupid amounts. It's a bit like when my wife goes shopping and tells me about all the money she has saved - but in order to save a lot she had to spend a lot.
