Rather, the book was accepted because it cut to the chase and talked about the devices of the day in a way that allowed the reader to actually do his or her own design. Weve approached Experimental Methods in RF Design with the same fundamental viewpoint of the subject material. -Wes Hayward, W7ZOIExperimental Methods in RF Design explores wide dynamic range, low distortion radio equipment, the use of direct conversion and phasing methods as a serious communications architecture, and a hands-on embracing of digital signal processing. The amateur bands up to 2 meters are considered, and are illustrated with CW and SSB gear. The book uses some mathematics where appropriate. It is, however, kept at a basic level.DESIGNModels and discussion allow the user to design equipment at both the circuit and the system level. Problems specific to radio communications equipment are discussed.EXPERIMENTATIONUsers are immersed in the communications experience by building equipment that contributes to understanding basic concepts and circuits. Presented to illustrate the design process, the equipment is often simple, lacking the frills found in commercial gear.MEASUREMENTMeasurement is a vital part of an experiment. Users are encouraged to perform measurements on gear as it is being built. Techniques to determine performance and the measurement equipment needed for the evaluations are discussed in detail, including circuits that the reader can build.Basic Investigations in ElectronicsAmplifiers, Filters, Oscillators, and MixersSuperheterodyne Transmitters and ReceiversMeasurement EquipmentDirect Conversion ReceiversPhasing Receivers and TransmittersDSP ComponentsDSP Applications in CommunicationsField Operation, Portable Gear, and Integrated StationsDisclaimer: This Classic Reprint Edition of a previous ARRL publication contains outdated content and references that may no longer be relevant or valid.
