"RF Circuit Deign"
By
Chris Bowick

Pub. Newnes.

I've just got a new copy from Ottakar's; it is
still in print (just) =A321-99pp for 176 pages packed
full of concise info about RF circuits, LC filters
(especially the bits about use of an L-network to
match ant to TX) together with a good analysis of
the Smiff (That's _TWO_ "f"'s) Chart and how to use it.

This was recommended to me by my current employers (apparently
the book is held in high regard in Japan). I only
wish that I had come across it before.

Looks a tad basic,

Looks a better bargain than that £350 law book of yours.

I have to agree Steve, a tad basic. Unless, of course, your employer has
spotted you lack the basics.

People have reported quite a few errors in it. Can't remember what they
are, but you should be able to find them with some Googling.

Leon

Now, what was that observation that Walt made?

Ah! Here it is.....

Oh my.

I've never encountered anyone else who is such a master of the
thinly-veiled jibe and the "I'm superior to you" innuendo in every
situation.

Now, Brian, here's that opportunity for you to put your money
where your mouth is.....which particular parts of the book do
you "agree..... are a tad basic". Please reply within 2 minutes so
that you don't have time to consult the book (perhaps for the
very first time?), or else be seen for ever hereafter as a
laughing stock, and a LIAR.

As for employers who spot your deficiencies, who was the "south
coast defence employer" who sacked you and as the result of which
you couldn't get another job and had to go into teaching?
("Those that can, do. Thos that can't, teach, etc etc"?)

Now, Brian, here's that opportunity for you to put your money
where your mouth is.....

All books have some errors, but I wonder whether the message
given in the book is destroyed by those errors? Probably not.

No reply from Brian Reay, who thus may be taken
as a liar and a bull****ter (if he wasn't so taken
already).

All mouth and trousers.

There are a number of rather silly and infantile people
whose first inclination is to sneer. Two such intellectual
failures are quoted below; "Empty vessels make the
most noise". A book whose first page is about
wire, the skin effect thereto, and the inductance of a short
length of wire is not basic by any means.

Not only are you reduced to working for a shower of murdering Japanese
*******s, but you were recomended to go sit in a corner read a book and
brush up on your maths.
