Wondering if I could get some help learning from the best, reputable and helpful people on this forum. I could Pay by the hour or for a 2-3 hour block of time.
I'd like to work on my late 60's and 70's Marshall heads; Traynor YBA-1's; Trainwreck clone, etc. - to troubleshoot hiss/noise; do gain mods; PPIMV installation, biasing, or even learn to use my oscilloscope to check the health of certain waveforms when biasing or just for the heck of it.
I could pay for the time block or trade services and expertise.
I'm a board certified M.D. and graduated medical school in 1995 working FT ever since. I could review your labs/blood work, diagnosis, and "EXPLAIN all of those abbreviations and numbers". I could help you or your spouse understand what to watch for - and why. I can explain this in your language - this lab value is off. that's no problem, it's like changing a resistor a tiny value. But this other lab value might be off a little too, and THAT one is akin to the 'death cap' and if you aren't careful you could be in serious health trouble. What "not to worry about" is also very helpful in healthcare. I can give you plain advice on how to get the best medical care you can from your provider, depending on your unique situation. You could have more years with your loved ones. Obviously I couldn't be your personal physician, but I can explain things in ways you WILL understand. Answer your questions. You'd answer mine too. Then you can make better decisions for yourself regarding healthcare. Now I've done this as many times as some of you have measured plate voltage or done a PPIMV mod. 30,000 patients=30,000 mods. They are all slightly different.
Now I'm strictly a hobbyist; having built a couple tube amps, I have basic knowledge of draining filter caps/safety; understand the basics of AC and DC current, I can measure plate voltage, do very basic chopstick troubleshooting etc. But I'd love to learn how to better compare layout diagrams to schematics. Things you find second nature, I don't and visa-versa.
I think it would be great to get help from experts on this forum via zoom or similar platform. Lmk your thoughts, It's kind of out there, but we all are experts in different ways. I'd appreciate no bashing me just for inquiring.
