I guess for someone who didn't have ANY experience in ham radio, it might be
a good start...... One does not become an Extra Class operator overnight. Ya
gotta start somewhere.

Unfortunately the "mentoring" spirit is not like it might have been in the
past. So, the texts the new potential hams will need should have as much
information as possible in order to make them better hams.

So?

So I came across it and wanted folks to know it wasn't a joke or a
photoshop.

The ARRL had training films that had smiley faces on electrons in
cartoons of radio circuits.

Never saw that one. But if it works, why not?

If this book can get newbies up to speed so that they don't make bonehead
errors on the air, then it's a good thing.

Agreed!

The new ham can fill in
gaps of knowledge
as he goes along later.

Better yet, avoid those gaps from the beginning.
