Again, can't thank you enough for the information and guidance you're providing.

I suppose that leads me to the ultimate question, how do I get past that 'hump' and become the guy that says "did you try this, and what was the measurement?"

I'm mostly self taught, also took a few years of electroncis courses in HS but that was 20 years ago. I'm not against the idea of trial and error, especially now that I have a stack of cheap unknown-condition Cobra CBs from ebay sitting on the bench and I do seem to learn best from being hands-on. Thay may be the best path for me, and just leveraging the help of the gurus here if I get myself in to a rut..but I'd definetely like to get to the point where I just know and don't need to bug you guys, haha. I like the idea of flow charts, I use those often in the IT field when training new techs. That might be something I could use here to help me learn the processes and procedures in troubleshooting a radio issue.
