Discussion

That Giga road test turned out to be 9 application projects in one road test.

I didn't get to spend as much time on projects in 2025 as I would like, and what time I did spend on them was not always very productive. Lots of real work, lots of family time, lots of sports and some life and death realities all factored into the time equation. However the electronics projects did serve as a fun break from other stressful situations.

Somewhere along the way I snuck past the 1 million e14 points mark (Ayrton), thanks to a lot of interaction with other members. The points system has a wide range of meanings for different members, but speaking as one who has reached Ayrton, it takes a lot of hours and a lot of work to level up, even though some points take a lot more effort than others. It ends up to be a pretty significant indicator of how much effort was expended.

It is a tribute to this form and the members here that I am motivated to participate at this level.

Thanks everybody - lots more fun to come...
