500 subscribers ! YouTube

[Radio Tech]

I know this is no big thing to most folks but this gives me a feeling of success.
Cannot believe I have already hit 500 subscribers on my YouTube channel.
At  the end of December I was just below 200, January and February has been 2 booming months.

I started my channel over a year ago. At first I did not really do a lot on my channel but a few noobie videos (not that all my video's are not noob produced). I then backed away for quite some time. About 4 months ago I got back to them and been trying to at least upload one ever 2 weeks.

Just a few folks I like to say thanks to for the inspiration:

Dave, EEVBlog.  Dave encouraged me from the beginning.
Lazarus, An online  forum member and close friend that gave me a lot of ideas.
Peter, TRXBench. His videos has helped me so much and is a good friend.
Paul, Mr. Carlson's Lab.  Found this guy via Peters channel.  Very positive and confident blogger.
Alan, w2aew. One of the masters of tutorial videos.
Shahriar, The Signal Path. Another master of tear downs and repairs.
Shock, another forum user that thought me a few things about reaching out and video prep.

And I have to say a big thanks to all my subscribers because without you, I could not do this.
Another thanks go out to the random viewers, these folks give me the most views and thumbs downs. This lets me know I need to do better.

I know there are more that would fit that list so if you were not mention still thanks.
I am really getting excited about this now.

30 videos uploaded, many more to come.

Cool replies 
Thought this post may had been a dud lol. Or perhaps the forum location.

great work!

Thanks very much for that comment.  I don’t get too excited about my videos.  One of my guys at work says I am a bit mono toned.  Maybe I need to spice them up a bit ?

Congratulations!

Thank you very much.

You are welcome and thanks for the very kind words Roberto.  I am very old school and don’t mind sharing things I learn and know.

! I always look forward to watching your new repair vids!

Well thank you. Should have a new one coming out today or tomorrow. A bit under the weather here and I need to edit the footage.

Yes, 500 doesn't sound like a lot, but just image 500 people at a venue there to see you as you get up on stage!
Keep it up, consistency of upload is key, few people have the ability to keep producing content year after year.

Thanks Dave.
Sort of shocks me to see 500 , at the moment 528.
Been a slow week.
For now I have plenty of content to shoot. Time is my worse enemy.  Trying to get one video a week.

I'm struggling to get out two a week at the moment and it's supposed to be my full time job

Ha! 
I know that has to be a job mate. I am really surprised to see you do as many. Has to be tough trying to come up with new content each week.
I feel for you.
At the moment I could do 3-4 a week if I had the time.  When I get ready to repair for a video I search the internet on the item I am working on. Just to see if others have already done one. So far, not many have. Like the new one I just posted there is only one other repair video on it and that was by me

You are the master of it and a role model
