Now, Brian, here's that opportunity for you to put your money
where your mouth is.....which particular parts of the book do
you "agree..... are a tad basic". Please reply within 2 minutes so
that you don't have time to consult the book (perhaps for the
very first time?), or else be seen for ever hereafter as a
laughing stock, and a LIAR.

How do you expect him to tell you which particular parts of the book he
considers 'a tad basic' without consulting the book to quote chapter,
page, paragraph etc.?
Your post of 11:03 today describes it as '...full of concise info...',
what does that suggest to you?

"RF Circuit Deign"
By
Chris Bowick

Pub. Newnes.

I've just got a new copy from Ottakar's; it is
still in print (just) £21-99pp for 176 pages packed
full of concise info about RF circuits, LC filters
(especially the bits about use of an L-network to
match ant to TX) together with a good analysis of
the Smiff (That's _TWO_ "f"'s) Chart and how to use it.

Looks a better bargain than that £350 law book of yours.

Whatever books people recommend on RF Design , as a non-professional in the
RF Field , I find :
"Experimental Methods in RF Design" by W7ZOI ,KK7B and W7PUA the 'top of
the pops'.
Published by ARRL ,it also seems to be available from RSGB.
It has more than 500 pages and costs US $ 50.-
In my opinion , as an radio amateur home constructor ,you don't need any
other RF design book , although the above book's (much older) predecessor "
Solid State Design for the Radio Amateur " by W7ZOI and W1FB (now sadly SK)
is equally inspiring .

Does "EL84" know that you are pirating her

_STUPID_ boy.

There are a number of rather silly and infantile people
whose first inclination is to sneer. Two such intellectual
failures are quoted below; "Empty vessels make the
most noise". A book whose first page is about
wire, the skin effect thereto, and the inductance of a short
length of wire is not basic by any means.

You should already know all of the above after 30 years of hamming it up.
Basic. Looks like a good book for anyone starting out in radio with a good
basic education or a good crib sheet for the rest of us. Sitting in the sun
with a half full vessel reading Traveling wave antennas by Carlton H Walter,
includes an interesting discussion of the polyrod antenna ;c)

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
If that's not basic I'd like to know what is.
Is your knowledge so limited you see these as advanced subjects?
Oh, why did I bother to ask? I know the answer.

I have to agree Frank, the fundamental reason why a wire has inductance is a
very basic fact, I believe taught at KS3 science.

Makes you wonder about degrees from the UoE, does it not?

Now we know that you're a L.I.A.R. - the formula
to calculate the inductance of a short and straight
piece of wire simply is not taught in schools.

For someone who _BOASTS_ as much as you do about
your self-perceived importance to the world
of education, you are taking a very peculiar attitude
to the recommendation for a book to take Radio
Hams onwards. This should be an area for you to take
a lead, but your behaviour is suggestive of a loser
and not of a leader.

Sour grapes, perhaps, that you did not make the
recommendation yourself?

Does this appalling mental derangement of yours feature in
your behaviour in the classroom in Strood? Do you
sneer in the same way towards your pupils? What if
members of your school radio club were to read this NG,
what would they think of you? What would they think
of your cowardliness and laziness about the 12 WPM
Morse test and the way in which you opted for a test
aimed at 6-year-olds? Would you become as much
a laughing stock in the school as you are on here?

What would their
parents think of you if they were to peruse the
archives of this NG for the time that you were
under training at a girls' school, of all places, and
when you were publishing repeated offensive materials
about sheep shagging? Would there be an outcry? I have described
your behaviour to 3 people whom I know to be school teachers
and shown them what you published. All, without exception,
said that you are unsuitable to be a school teacher.

Your rather silly and infantile sneering below is a
further illustration of a sick, sick mind. Perhaps
it is time that you resigned from teaching?

That you sneer at attempts to introduce Radio Hams to
materials for advancement is a very good illustration
of why anybody who holds, or who has ever held, a licence
issued under the gangrenous degeneration that is the M3/CB
Fools' Licence scheme will _NEVER_ make it into the
ranks of _REAL_ Radio Hams.

It is also an indication of by how much you have
prostituted yourself in your crusade to compensate
for your well-deserved inferiority complex - you are
the arse-licker of an irrelevant commercial book publisher
and the book under recommendation was not published by them,
and so you attempt to bad-mouth it.

As it happens, Chris Bowick wrote the book as a condensation
of his experience as a designer of professional RF circuits.
(And, no, he did not get sacked for incompetence from a "South
Coast Defence Manufacturer). He also holds the call WB4UHY (not
one of the dog-turd M3 series such as M3OSN) and lists flying
as one of his pursuits. (Wasn't that something else that you flunked
yourself?)

You are a hypocrite, sir, you have no real interest in the
education of Radio Hams unless you yourself perceive a
personal benefit of some kind.

In fact Brian, you have blundered _B-I-G_ _T-I-M-E_

Without reading it and without being aware of any
of its contents, you have dismissed, as being worse than
a schoolbook, the concise presentation of a professional
RF engineer.

Are all of your pronouncements into this NG based on
such ignorance? Are you the master of spin-doctoring,
of bull-****ting and of downright lying? Are we to take
any and everything that you say from this point on with
a pinch of salt? How will we be able to tell whether
anything you claim from now on is made up on the spur
of the moment as were your uninformed comments about
Chris Bowick's book or whether based on truth?

You silly, silly fool.

As it happens, I think that you have illustrated so
well Walt's view of you.....

I've never encountered anyone else who is
such a master of the thinly-veiled jibe and
the "I'm superior to you" innuendo in every
situation

It looks to be a good book for the newcomer to RF design giving readers a
basic understanding of the fundamentals, but the question is - Why would
someone with your 30+ years of experience as a real radio ham find useful?
