My professional career is relatively extensive. Maybe some people will find
parallels to your life.
Philips apparatus factory in Wetzlar (GERMANY).
My professional career started with apprenticeship at the Philips
Apparatefabrik in Wetzlar. The education to the radio electronic
(Industrial Electronics) lasted 3 ½ years. At Philips in Wetzlar, some 1100
employees produced high-end car stereos and transformers made of
Schnittbandkern. The training thus included a basic education in the
processing of metals and plastics. After the training I have the technical work
as a troubleshooter for ARI decoder (traffic radio decoder) and car radios. I
did not just search for errors. Only so that no false impression.

Bosch TV GmbH (since summer 1986 BTS) in Darmstadt. Usually called FESE
in Darmstadt (GERMANY)
Picture gallery BTS: All important persons were alienated.
After the technical college and the study at the University of Applied
Sciences (since 01.03.2011 THM Central Hessen) I worked in Darmstadt at
the company Bosch television GmbH (since 1986 BTS). Here are about 1800
employees. In Darmstadt, products were developed and produced to be used in
television studios and TV-OB cars. Thesis were Studio cameras, movie
scanners, magnetic recording devices, video distributors, video mixers, video
crossbars, clock generators and much more. The work was very interesting
because you often had to deal with the latest TV products.
The picture gallery shows Bosch TV/BTS and some products of this company.

Motorola in Taunusstein-Neuhof (GERMANY).
After that I was briefly with Motorola in Taunusstein Neuhof (temporary
contract). At that time, cordless phones were repaired here. Previously, the
factory in Taunusstein-Neuhof was home to the development and production
of radio equipment for fire brigades, police and other customers.
The picture gallery shows Motorola products that were developed and
produced earlier in the factory in Taunusstein-Neuhof.
Feig Electronic in Weilburg-Waldhausen (GERMANY).
Then I landed at the Feig Electronic company in Weilburg-Waldhausen. At
Feig, gate controls, object recognition, RFID devices and radar motion
detectors were the main products manufactured at the time.
The picture gallery can only show a small part of the product range of the
company Feig Electronic in Weilburg-Waldhausen
Haag electronic measuring instruments in Waldbrunn-Hausen (GERMANY).
Afterwards I came to Waldbrunn-Hausen to the company Haag Electronic
Measuring Instruments. Here, in my main analysis, analyzers for mains voltage
and electronic loads for mains voltage were developed and produced.
The picture gallery shows an part of products from Haag electronic measuring
devices in Waldbrunn-Hausen.
After that I took my future more or less in my own hands. It is also called
"who does not dare, who does not win".
