I remember your saying you didn't have time to study for the RPT test.  How do you find the time to study electronics?

Enough all ready - just do like my mentor does - work on -both- !

Most of the time, it's going to be as simple as replacing a board or a
module chip. Probably some broken keys or cleaning contact points. Maybe
some soldering skills.

Sure, that means learning a little electronic schematic reading and
probing with tester.

BUT, isn't that worth it for long term longevity. (Mine is computers - I
have a few days short term project coming up next week.)

If all else fails, probably, some of you, can do some PC projects -
family, friends, etc.

Best regards ;-)
