Never underestimate how poorly some theoretical minds cannot understand practical things.  I worked with a guy working on his Masters in EE that couldn't understand how to wire a 3-way switch and make it work.

No - I have been a commercial operator for nearly 50 years but never an amateur

Interesting.  So many people get into things like radio and photography 
professionally as an extension of a personal interest that first has them doing 
it as a hobby.

In college, I was talking to someone in my basic circuits class about the 
lecture on resistor bridges. I commented that they looked like full wave 
rectifiers, but with resistors rather than diodes, and I was blown away that 
someone could be in their second year of Electrical Engineering without already 
knowing basic electronics from personal interest.
