"Once you go 1A2, you never go back."
I think that I am arriving at the point where I can say that I whole heartidly concur.
Arthur, I am gobsmacked to say the least by your knowledge of the trade. You understand the system, which for the most part, does not exist anymore (the understanding of the system I mean).
Techinicians today, are for the most part, parts replacers. Nothing gets "fixed" anymore, just tossed and replaced. It's like in IT. You have someone come in with a problem, and the technician concludes it's the motherboard. Well, you know the motherboard is a big place. What is it exactly on the motherboard that is causing the problem? Today, only engineers can answer that question, maybe. So, the motherboard gets tossed with 98% functionality, and the customer pays 700$ for a job that could cost 5 bucks, minus the man hours.
One more question if I may, and please pardon my ignorance, what exactly is the role of the interruptor?
