Before vintage radios... My experience with networking and repairing computers taught me about the basics of electronics. For instance, I already knew what a resistor was and how it worked. Same for a capacitor, switches, and basic electrical circuits.

What I couldn't wrap my head around was radio theory. How did the signal come out of thin air and turn into a sound inside the radio? It just HAD to be complicated. Or so I thought. I keep reading and reading and looking for understanding of this complicated process. The more I read, the less I knew..."Theory books" only made it worse...

So, I read "Elements of Radio Servicing"... and it clicked. The problem? What had I missed? That it is not complicated at all. It's very simple. I had known the answers all along, but I never believed it. I am still no expert, but now I get it.
