radiator should get a copy of _Radio-Electronic Transmission

Atlanta Ga., c2000, ISBN 1884932134. 638 p. Griffith is a retired
principal engineer with Continental. This classic college broadcast
engineer textbook explains many fundamentals involving medium wave
transmission in an easy to understand way. Getting the most out of
your valuable copper wire is more important now than ever because
