Some different perspectives on what the tech job scene is like these days, and then some other random things. Honestly I am not sure what has happened in my feed today.
I found the following four videos on the AlphaPhoenix channel explaining various aspects of the propagation of electricity, which goes some way to explaining how the high impedance headphone might work in my 10in1 2/10 project.
In this video I do the second Maxitronix 10in1 Electronic Project Lab project: Morse Code Oscillator.
In this video when I’m talking about the tuning capacitor I say that 0.001uF is 1,000 picofarads, but of course it is 1,000 nanofarads; I would have put a correction into the video but I didn’t notice the error until I had already published it.
There was some follow up discussion about topics raised in this video over here: propagation of electricity.
Stay tuned for the upcoming projects. If you’re interested in seeing them don’t forget to subscribe!
Also, if you’re interested in getting any of these Maxitronix kits yourself the best place I know to look is on eBay. Let me know if you find them somewhere else!

In this video I introduce the Maxitronix 10in1 Electronic Project Lab. This kit has 10 projects which we will be working through in future videos.
I did check out the URL listed on the manual: www.maxitronix.com — but there’s nothing there any more, it is simply listed as for sale. I tried looking in archive.org but I only found some default content from the hosting provider.

In this video I announce the new “Xin1” feature of the show. In the Xin1 feature we will work through the various Maxitronix electronic project labs that I own. We will be working through the following project kits, one after the other:
10in1
20in1 (actually branded “Sensor Robot 20”)
30in1
59in1 (actually branded “Electronic Digital Recording Laboratory”)
60in1
130in1
200in1
300in1
500in1
That’s 1,309 projects to do!
As I mention in the video each time I start a new project kit I will do an introductory video to cover the front matter in the manual and to give an overview of the projects in the kit. Then I will make one video for every project in the kit. The project videos will be in this form:
Project introduction
Project construction (in the booth)
Demonstration and testing (on the bench)
Conclusion and review
And starting today the plan is to have a new video on the channel every day. So let’s see how I go with that! :)
Update 2024-05-10 jj5 – it turns out daily videos were way too ambitious. My new goal is three videos per week. Also standby for updates to the video format, I am thinking I will add a circuit simulation in LTspice and maybe an actual circuit build on a PCB designed in KiCad and manufactured by PCBWay.

In the first video I learned about AppCAD Design Assistant which is a free tool which boasts a broad bunch of features (and, particularly, it can help you design an antenna on your PCB):
S-Parameter Analysis and Plotting
Active Circuit Bias Design
Cascade Noise and IP3 Analysis
Transmission Line Analysis
Signals and Systems
Complex Math Engineering Calculator
I haven’t used AppCAD yet, but I will check it out soon.
There’s a little rebranding in progress. I’m changing my YouTube handle for the main channel from @JohnElliotV to @InTheLabWithJayJay. If you find any dead links please do let me know. <3
