Hi everybody. I'm a hobbyist who is just getting into the field of electronics. Although I've had no previous experience with electronics I am almost done reading Electricity and Basic Electronics. Every concept is making sense and more importantly, everything seems very interesting. Although all this theory is great I do want to get started with building some real circuits because I think I am ready to handle it and it should be fun as well. However, this is where I am having trouble. Whenever I look at a schematic, even a relatively simple one, I can't seem to figure out where every component should go. I'm not sure if this is a common problem or not with beginners but I am, regardless, having trouble with it. For example: https://www.aaroncake.net/circuits/fmtrans.htm. This is a fairly simple FM transmitter that I thought would make a good first project. Every time I start to breadboard the circuit I get completely confused. So, I am looking for some tips from those who have more experience and/or skill than I do with building circuits. Am I looking at/doing something the wrong way? Should I do some simpler circuits before I try this so that I can get used to reading schematics? If so, which ones? Any help is apperciated.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
