Antenna book
My wife picked up a book at a yard sale today for $1. Handbook of
Antenna Design by Rudge. I havnt had a chance to check it out yet, is this a good book. Jimmie |

Hi Jimmie, Praise your wife and read the book - then tell her it's great. Arthur would probably recommend burning it if the index doesn't include gaussian librium. Here's a test. Does it have a formula for the radiation resistance of an elementary dipole or loop? Both? What would the formula evaluate the Rr of a quarter-quarterwave sized vertical? For extra credit (applied to this author), what would be the reactance? You may have to extrapolate that from a chart, but 10 bonus points (applied to this author) if there's an equation. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |

I also noticed it carries a hefty price tag at amazon. I think the wife did well. It way be a while before I can dig into it though. My plate is pretty full right now. I have to go to classes to become the system administrator. for a new computer system. for the next couple of months I am going to be concentrating on that. Jimmie |

Jimmie I don't know the book, but there is a two volume set (one orange, one blue) by Rudge, Milne, Olver and Knight. Those are professional level antenna books. I suspect it is the same Rudge. If yours is similar, I would think it is a steal at $1. Professional level antenna books can be very expensive. My background is quite close to their target audance - I did an MSc degree in "Microwaves and Optoelectronics", and one of the options I took during that MSc was "Antennas and Radar". Yet I'm the first to admit, I find the theory in these sort of books very hard at times. (I think having a maths degree might help, which I do not have). G8WRB |
