[bars] Radio Book

[geoffreyf at comcast.net]

What are the chapters on SSB, Solid State circuits, FET's, digital modes, automatic tuners, antenna analyzers, satellite contacts, Spread spectrum, SDR, Method of moments antenna analysis. Digital signal processors ... what kind of feedlines does it cover?

It's easier to write a handbook when half the stuff hasn't been discovered yet.  Now that everything is simplified for you - have you tried to get the rigs and parts that are simplified for your understanding?

What exactly did you learn from it that is of use to you or anyone else?

Picked up a copy of The Radio Handbook, 1938 edition, for a couple of bucks several weeks ago. I started reading it today and realized it beats the ARRL handbooks by a long mile. Easy to read, concepts well-explained. $1.50 in 1938 would be $31.95 today.
