What EE/EM research can be done at home any more ?
Infraviolet:
Just a thought, is there a list anywhere of "open problems" in electronics for today, like Hilbert's maths problems were in 1900? That wuld be the place to start, see what isn't known, then work out what is feasible to do at home, rather than trying to work out what is feasible to do then hoping your ideas of feasible things map to unanswered problems.
CatalinaWOW:
Not really electronic or physics, but in Knuth's "Art of Computer Programming" he includes problems at the end of each chapter ranging from easy to research topics. Although the texts are 50 years old now I am sure that many of the difficult ones remain unsolved.

Power electronics is a field where, except designing the semiconductor devices, you can do cutting-edge stuff on a relatively reasonable budget.
coppercone2:
this one always struck me as approachable

I remember those charged sphere problems in class. I guess they are a little more complicated then the exam lead you to believe. ;D

Pretty sure embedded systems are cheaper, unless you're into really exotic stuff.
