Strange question - electronics kits

AI Thread Summary
For beginners interested in electronics, starting with a kit is a great way to learn design and execution skills. Recommended kits often include those from brands like Velleman, which provide comprehensive components and instructions. Many users suggest checking out previous forum threads for additional insights on popular kits and parts sourcing. For spare electronic parts, local electronics stores and online retailers are frequently recommended. Engaging with the community can also lead to valuable resources and project ideas.

Hello,

I am interested in tinkering with electronics and learning how to design / execute projects, and I thought I'd start out with a kit. I was wondering what kits, if any are recommended / of good use, and if you don't use them, where you recommend I find spare electronics parts for my projects? Thanks.

Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'

I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...

Thread 'EMF (Electromagnetic Field) & EHS (Electromagnetic Hyper Sensitivity)'

Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
