schematic and ask them to find a component by function. "Knowledge of
electronics"? It would be funny if it weren't so sad.


In 1953, as a sophomore in high school, I didn't know any
electronics and was therefore forced to memorize the ARRL
License Manual in order to get my Conditional license.
People like me have been memorizing License Manuals for
more than half a century.
