This review is from: Simple and Fun Antennas (Paperback)
The instructions in this book explain nothing about how or why the antenna(s) works. It just tells you how long to cut each wire and how to connect it. Want to build one of the antennas on a different frequency? Well tough luck. They never mention the formulas needed to figure out the wire lengths. It's their frequency or the highway. It's strange how they NEVER mention the formulas needed. It's like the ARRL thought we couldn't handle simple math. So yeah, this book was insulting and pretty useless if your goal is education. Bad purchase.

4.0 out of 5 stars Útil y sencillo, May 15, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Simple and Fun Antennas (Paperback)
Un libro sobre antenas que cualquiera puede comprender y realizar. No sólo antenas, también líneas de transmisión, soportes y torres, acopladores, etc. Muy ameno de leer.

Suficientes proyectos para todas las bandas, medios y espacio.

Recomendable.
