Hi. I bought some books to teach myself Electronics. "Starting Electronics" by Keith Brindley is one of them.
I am learning very quickly and enjoy the process but I keep having to go back to the store to buy components! Fry's is 45 minutes away and it's not very fun if I have 4 hours to tinker and I have to spend 1.5 of them in traffic and 1 of them looking for components so I can experiment for a little while before I have to stop again and go buy more components.
I got the bright idea finally to flip through the entire book and make a list of all the components mentioned and go out and buy them individually. So here I am about to make my 3rd trek to the store in less than a week to HOPE that they have everything I need in stock.
There has to be an easier way? No?
