Electronics 101? (Are there online classes available anywhere?)

Newbee here. Found Electronicspoint by following a Google search on an issue. Glad to be here! I have always wished I could read a schematic and do my own electronics repair. Does anyone know of anywhere online or in the Sacramento area (colleges?) where I might get educated enough to do my own testing and soldering? I am recently retired and it would be right up my alley. I love tinkering and fixing. I have about a dozen turntables waiting on me, but they generally don't require electronics know how, just mechanical. Would love to be able to fix a receiver. Have a couple of them waiting on me, too (one a Pioneer SX 3900 that stares at me every day and calls me names).

I'd take it out the back and beat it with a stick for its impudence!

You could start a thread on the radio listing the problem(s) and get an idea of what's involved with repairing such by following instruction we could give.
