2010 Edition. The comprehensive RF Engineering Reference.

The BIGGEST Handbook EVER! THE Standard. Period.

At the radio...
on the workbench...
in the library

Since it was first published in 1926, The ARRL Handbook has been a mainstay for the radio electronic experimenter. A core resource for radio amateurs, hobbyists, engineers, and scientists, The Handbook is the single most authoritative reference on practical communications topics. It is both reference book and tutorial—woven together with practical applications and solutions.

The “WOW” Factor!
More than 60 authors and reviewers contributed over 70% NEW or completely revised content, making this the biggest Handbook…ever (over 1,250 pages). Including all new treatments of digital communications technology, solid-state RF power amplifiers and switch-mode power supplies.

MORE NEW PROJECTS:

• 250-W solid-state amplifier for 160-6 meters.
• Variable-voltage bench supply using switch-mode modules.
• Antennas! Extended double-Zepp, multi-band horizontal loop and inexpensive Yagis for VHF/UHF.
• Station accessories, including a high-power 160/80 meter matching network for 43 foot verticals, a 100 W Z-match antenna tuner and transmitting chokes.
• …and MUCH MORE!
