The
members of SPS often have a chance to learn some physics, or history of
physics, during the meetings. This
semester the theme is to learn more about electronics. The students start with modular
electronic kits to learn a bit about what the various components do. They find out that the schematic for
the karaoke machine is incorrect (it is the last one in the book) and they are
challenged to make it work correctly.
Several groups are successful.

bugs in the karaoke. |
