Hey all! New guy here.
I've been into the electronics thing for some time. Historically, I've been a repairer of old video game consoles, a builder of Raspberry Pi stuff, a programmer of robots for FIRST robotics (back in 2002, believe it or not). More recently I've gotten my ham radio license and I am in the process of building up my radio station.
At any rate, I found the channel because I was looking for a design for a linear power supply, and I had some ideas and questions so I found my way here.
@kd9wzz Bill the wizard behind @dronebot-workshop produced a video (eye candy) and article (actual info) in his blog about how to build a linear power supply.
First computer 1959. Retired from my own computer company 2004.
Hardware - Expert in 1401, and 360, fairly knowledge in PC plus numerous MPU's and MCU's
Major Languages - Machine language, 360 Macro Assembler, Intel Assembler, PL/I and PL1, Pascal, Basic, C plus numerous job control and scripting languages.
My personal scorecard is now 1 PC hardware fix (circa 1982), 1 open source fix (at age 82), and 2 zero day bugs in a major OS.
