from it, but it's also not the definitive work of electromagnetic theory.


But it is "The Bible" of Amateur Radio and this is an Amateur
Radio newsgroup. Anyone disagreeing with the 2000 ARRL Handbook
should be able to quote some technical references to the contrary.
Where are the technical references that contradict the 2000 ARRL
Handbook statements on "precipitation static"?

Where's the experimental evidence, Cecil? You and Yuri don't have
any because you're too afraid to get your hands dirty. Insulting
Tom isn't going to help any, either, nor is intellectual
weaseling and selective quotations from dubious sources.
