Can someone point out any general forums for electronics hobbiests? I have done a standard google search and not turned up any, but I _know_ they have to be out there somewhere 🙂 Thanks, Ray ---

The sci.electronics.\* groups on Usenet are full of good people. I also like to look in on comp.arch.embedded and comp.arch.fpga and rec.radio.amateur.homebrew every now and then. If you’re at a university or your ISP does usenet, I recommend using an actual newsreader, but you can fall back on the [[google groups web interface](http://groups-beta.google.com/groups?q=group:sci.electronics.*&scoring=d). There’s the occasional loon or asshole but that’s what killfiles are for.]([http://groups-beta.google.com/groups?q=group:sci.electronics.\*&scoring=d](http://groups-beta.google.com/groups?q=group:sci.electronics.*&scoring=d)) ---
