Hello,

I just got a copy of the book Basic Elecronics by Van Valkenburgh, Neville and Nooger (all 6 parts in one volume). I have read the power supply section so far, and have found that it has a lot of information and is easy to read. The versio that I have is the British and Commonwealth version, published by the Technical Press in London.

I highly recommend this bok, and it looks like the Librarys in Britain are selling off their copys. I am now on the lookout for Basic Electrics and Basic Solid State Electronics.

Hi all.

I think this thread is absolutely great!!!.

Firstly, as has already been said, BEWARE HIGH VOLTAGES!. This can't be stressed enough. The basic kit you need is simple enough. Scope, millivoltmeter, multimeter and signal generator. That's the technical stuff, now the other. Calculator, pencil with sharpener (trust me, you'll need this) and lots of paper. The fundamental in all this is Ohm's law. Work it out first on paper, then attempt to build it. Last 2 pieces of kit that I insist on using. These come from my days as a TV engineer in the 70's. ISOLATING TRANSFORMER AND RUBBER MATTING AROUND THE BENCH. Seems like overkill, but life comes before a quest!!.

If you are interested in any more info then please ask.
