This whole thing is a project for me to learn on.
It is quite frustrating to be spending thousands of dollars on college, and all I have to show so far is the memoriziation of a bunch of equations. There has not been much practical application (like troubleshooting) at all.
I mean, you mentioned it is most likley a transistor problem. So, I have been nose deep in all my books researching them, and google-ing like a mad man. I spent around 7 hours last night just reasearching for the sake of learning.
Its not that I am unable to learn, its simply that I have yet to be exposed to alot of the things you have been.
