DESCRIPTION:
Good guide to the internal workings of a radio I am ham radio operator. It had been years since I had dabbled in building a radio so found this book. I built the radio as I went through the book. It helped me successfully transition from tubes to transistors and integrated circuits. Now I have a great radio and know how to troubleshoot it when it has problems. Armed with the technical and conceptual knowledge I ga. "Five Stars" according to J. Blazina. Just started this book but so far I'm loving it. Practical and application!. "Very Best Book for its Purpose - Prerequisites Recommended" according to KSVery Best Book for its Purpose - Prerequisites Recommended KS4RT Speaking from the view of an electronics technician who later became an educator (BS in Secondary Ed - U of TN 1980), I believe it accomplishes its purpose for being published (>90%)!

This book, the first to deal with elementary electronics in the context of radio, can be used as a textbook for introductory analog electronics courses, or for more advanced undergraduate classes on radio-frequency electronics. He then describes the key elements of radio electronics, including filters, amplifiers, oscillators, mixers, and antennas. In the laboratory exercises, he leads the reader through the design, construction, and testing of a popular radio transceiver (the NorCal 40A), thereby illustrating and reinforcing the theoretical material. The author provides essential theoretical background at each step, along with carefully designed laboratory and homework exercises. A diskette containing the widely known circuit simulation software, Puff, is included in the book. The author begins with a thorough description of basic electronic components and simple circuits. This structured approach ensures a good grasp of basic electronics as well as an excellent foundation in wireless communications systems. This innovative book provides a stimulating introduction to analog electronics by analyzing the design and
"Overall, this text is worthy of serious study for the care with which it combines theory and practice, and for the scope of its development from lowly, Ohm's law beginnings to substantive radio design incorporating gain and frequency stabilization." Contemporary Physics
