I know enough of the trade to appreciate that there is a good deal to know to *know* the trade. Some schooling = two year associate degree. That starts to approach the investment associated with a college degree. When you add the supervised OJT you have as much investment as an electronics engineering degree. Mark Browne |

Mark Browne I know enough of the trade, and is no where near an EE degree. I have an EE, and is a whole lot more study went in to that than a electricians schooling. |
