Excellent RF manual, 17 Feb 2000
By Harold Kinley - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Practical Radio Frequency Test and Measurement: A Technician's Handbook (Paperback)
As contributing editor and technical consultant to Mobile Radio Technology magazine I try to keep up with the latest books on radio and RF in general. I have never seen a Joe Carr book that was anything less than very good. This one is excellent. He knows the subject matter and writes in a practical, down-to-earth way that technicians can relate to. If you need to increase you knowledge of RF this book is for you. I highly recommend it!

Outstanding!, 23 May 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Practical Radio Frequency Test and Measurement: A Technician's Handbook (Paperback)
This book is a truly outstanding reference for the RF laboratory. (It is so good, that I'm thinking about buying a second copy just in case I ever lose the first) Although this book says it is a "technician's handbook", I think engineers and technicians alike will find this book invaluable. If you are a young engineer, this book will answer all of the "stupid" questions you're afraid to ask your more senior colleagues. If you are a senior engineer, this book will help you remember how to perform that obscure receiver benchmark measurement. You really can't lose with this book.

finebuss handbook for serious amateur radio operators, 21 Feb 2003
By Frank Chen - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Practical Radio Frequency Test and Measurement: A Technician's Handbook (Paperback)
This is my first Joseph Carr book and I am totally hooked.Being a new ham and with no EE background, I find this book to be very clear and easy to understand, even for newbies like myself.
To fully grasp the ideas inside I would guess being a ham
helps. With basic college EE background this book sure is
a breeze to read. This is also a good handbook in case you forget RF fundamentals.
I am looking forward to buying more Josheph books.
