Carr provides a quick course in designing and making an antenna. The text starts off simply, with basic information about wave propagation and explaining such terminology like decibels and coaxial cable.
Then the book describes each of the main types of antennas - Yagi, Marconi, Hertzian and others. Each is covered only briefly. But accompanied by simple circuit diagrams and illustrations. These should suffice to let you build them. Be aware that there are much large, more comprehensive texts on antenna design. Aimed usually at antenna engineers. Carr's book can be readily comprehended by an amateur in this field. The CD is useful, because it has a lot more background information, delegated to it by the text.

Book just had basic information; definitely not worth the cost. The disc that came with it did not work. Big time ripoff.
