I have decided to become a member of this technical forum in March 2012.
Since then I have produced - to the best of my knowledge - about 250 technical answers and contributions.
In addition, I have placed an article about a novel harmonic oscillator (column „theory“).
Why I have entered this forum?
I am about 70 years old - and I have many years practice in industrial design&development (some older members may remember the sun probe HELIOS) as well as in teaching students (lecturer for analog signal processing and control engineering).
Thus, I was of the opinion that I could forward some of my experience to younger people who need some assistance in solving technical problems.
More than that, I like objective technical discussions because it is a real challenging task to select a single solution out of several alternatives. This makes system design a lot more complicated and time consuming than system analysis.
In addition, such a forum is a good tool to keep in touch with the english language.
I like to repeat: I prefer technical and objective discussions.
***
Now - this aspect leads to the reasons for leaving the forum:
Four of the technically oriented threads I have participated in have ended with a kind of personal attacks - just because I was so „pedantic“ to stick on technical explanations/verifications of some claims as formulated by another member. Obviously, the corresponding gentlemen were not willing resp. able to respond on a physical/technical basis.
I strongly dislike such an attitude and such a way of communicating between engineers.
Today, I got the recommendation - which I consider as a kind of instruction/reproof - not to comment any postings when this comment does not „help the OP“. Aha, so the OP and all readers have to accept an answer that - for my opinion - did require some additional explanation, see https://www.electro-tech-online.com/threads/ltspice-voltage-controlled-switch-in-ac-analysis.130180/
Thats enough. It’s a pitty, but I withdraw from this forum.
Presently, I am a member of two other electronic forums - and I must confess that, up to now I never (!) had a similar experience. This was my last posting in this forum.
Good bye to all.
