Cheers Lads ,,, allot of great advice he ,,,,i will not get the electronics lab ,pleased i asked
John ,, i did have a look into trying to get on some sort of couse ,but was unable to fine any local collages doing electronics and i could not fined any distace learning courses either,,they just do electrics house wiring that sort of thing
Andy,, I do have most of the kit you list ,but i will have to get a smaller end for my soldering iron and i don't have a power supply, thats some thing i will have to get ,or modifi a comuter power supply ,into a bench one if possible
Dave ,

that is allot of beer ,,you made a very good point ,Without an effective grasp of the basic Ohms Law etc., nothing will make any sense,,I could not agree more ,i would like to no why ,how and were ,,not becouse it just dose
Bernd ,made another good point ,,try to learn just one segment of electronics, like DC. Then go on to the next and so on.
great advise lads ,i will start at the begining and hopefully work forward ,,no dought i will fry a good few parts on the way ,there is a local Maplins not far from were i live so i will go and have a look in there for some books and a small starter project
Many thanks Rob
