Entering amateur radio? Are you returning after a break away? Or maybe you've tended to specialise in a few facets. Whatever your interests in radio, the Illustrated International Ham Radio Dictionary is for you.
In a clear, conversational style, it presents definitions for over 1500 amateur radio and electronic terms. Technical and operating facets are both covered in depth. Including country-specific terms, the dictionary is applicable worldwide.

Amateur Radio operators have a long tradition of going beyond operating, moving into technology development, home construction, and experimentation. Designing and building one s own station equipment can be rewarding, providing more in-depth knowledge and excitement. There are a number of ways to make good use of a properly equipped workshop for projects. We will explore many of the options radio experimenters choose to pursue.

Exploring the Magic of Wireless Communication
There are countless ways for radio signals to travel from transmitter to receiver, and understanding how radio waves interact with their environment is an important factor in successful radio communications. While amateurs can maximize station performance and reliability with the right equipment, knowledge and skill, we cannot control propagation. Through scientific exploration and experimentation, we can improve our understanding of propagation and how it affects radio signals.
Propagation and Radio Science presents a comprehensive overview of one of the most fascinating and rewarding activities in Amateur Radio. Author Eric Nichols, KL7AJ, uses his lively, engaging approach to present the complex subject of radio propagation in simple, easy-to-understand terms. This book covers topics ranging from theoretical exploration to practical application. It explains the phenomena we observe on the amateur bands and invites you to embark on the journey through the still-unknown radio propagation universe.

Amateur Radio operators love antennas – the bigger the better -- but if you don’t have acres of property to erect the antenna of your dreams, does it mean you’re effectively off the air? Not at all! This fascinating hobby is still yours to enjoy. With the right antenna design you'll be on the air today!

Amateur and Short Wave Radio Electronics Experimenter’s Web Site. “The QRP/SWL Homebuilder site is owned and maintained by VE7BPO. The purpose of this website is to promote experimentation with relatively simple radio electronic circuits. Please keep in mind that I am a novice, lay person experimenter, not an engineer. “

Radio amateurs are familiar with antennas and use them every day to communicate on the air. We learned some basic antenna theory while studying for license exams, and most of us have built an antenna or two. We know the basics and turn to the ARRL Handbook, ARRL Antenna Book, and other general texts when thinking about our next antenna project.

Radio amateurs are known for electronic experimentation and homebrew building. Using the wide variety of components available, they design and build impressive radio equipment. With the industry growth of components for wireless communications and surface mount technology (SMT), the choices available seem endless and selecting the proper component can seem a daunting task. Fortunately, most amateurs tend to use a limited number of component types that have “passed the test of time,” making component selection in many cases easy and safe. Others are learning to design and build using the vast array of SMT parts.

In the world of radio, the antenna is “where the rubber meets the road!” With antennas so fundamental to communication, it is important that the amateur have a basic understanding of their function. That understanding enables effective selection and application of basic designs to whatever communications task is at hand. In addition, the amateur is then equipped to engage in one of the most active areas of amateur experimentation, antenna design.
