Wow. For years we have been telling other builders that when they get stuck on a technical radio problem, when they can't fix a rig or get something to work, they should NOT stick with it, pull their hair out, and bang their heads against the wall. Nor should they do what many of us do in our troubleshooting nightmares: start pulling components off the board until, in the end, the board is empty. No, don't do that. Take a break, take a walk, do some gardening, do something different. Then, when your mind is clear, suddenly the solution will come to you. "Of course," you will think, "R16 should be 10K not 10 ohms!" Or something like that.
But why does that happen, and how does it happen? It seems that many creative people through the centuries have been aware of this phenomenon.
Listen to this podcast. They discuss the benefits of taking a break and clearing your head.
