Book Reviews of Practical Radio Frequency Test and Measurement: A Technician's Handbook

Book Review: Good Handbook, Light Design Info,, solid reference material
Summary: 4 Stars

Good GENERAL test guidance throughout, with handy formula to tie you back into the theory of what is actually happening. Although there are some of Joe Carr's books I don't like, this is one I definately do and highly recommend for anyone involved in the testing of RF devices, especially those which have to test and work with a diverse product set.

For more in depth circuit analysis, see Chris Bowicks "RF Circuit Design" or for more basic info, check out Jon Hagen's "RF Electronics". If you need PCB guidance, head over to Tim Williams "The Circuit Designers Companion" and if you need more magnetic or HAM type info definately get Jerry Sevicks "Transmission Line Transformers".
