I need to brush up my RF and antenna knowledge, which is always something
that I've almost but not quite understood. I've got a few books on the
subject (two by Kraus, Electromagnetics and Antennas, and another on RFIC
design) but they're often dry academic tomes and it's hard to get a feel
for
the subject. I'd really like something along the lines of The Art of
Electronics for RF. The AofE has a high-frequency chapter but it's a bit
too brief (though I ought to go and reread it, it's been a while).

Any recommendations for hands-on books that are relatively easy to read,
to
give an idea of practicalities as well as theory?

Thanks
