The Radioman's Manual of RF Devices

AUTHOR: Harold Kinley
FORMAT: Hardcover
LIST PRICE: $69.00
PUBLISHED: 2003

This book deals with the RF aspects of radio communication. Whether you're involved in land mobile radio, ham radio, marine radio or aviation radio, this book has something for you! Understanding RF devices and principles is essential to a good understanding of radio communication. For example: how high is the voltage on the transmission line with a given load VSWR? Where is the highest voltage point located on the line? What are duplexers and how are they tuned and tested? How can intermodulation interference, transmitter noise and receiver desense problems be addressed and negated or suppressed? These are just a few of the questions that are not only answered but fully explained in this manual. If you are involved in the technical aspects of radio communications, you will find this manual indispensable.
