Another thing I have a history with is the audio amplifier. If you’ve read my post about VU meters here, then you will know that I had some fun in my childhood and teen years. They were spent trying to discover how to build an LED VU meter. Bear in mind my age at the…
Some ramblings of mine here about education and my experience of it.Firstly, a bit about my background, I went to college, studied electronics firstly.

I’ve been obsessed with VU meters since childhood since we had a portable cassette recorder with LED VUs..It was the bush 7070, this ghettoblaster/boombox is so rare that image search only comes up with a single image of it, and here it is: It has these quirky V shaped VU Meters which are quite unique.…

I’ve been eagerly waiting to receive the case for the SIDBox. It’s a makeshift one for now in true prototyped fashion. 3D printed and crude but It’s a case and because it’s not perfect, I can have a chance to be creative with it! I have to say I’m absolutely loving the colour on this,…
