[AMPS] 'new' textbook

[John T. M. Lyles]

High Power Microwave Tube Transmitters is a 385 page text written by 
William North. This is one of the best authorative manuals on the 
theory and practice of large tube RF power systems, modulators, power 
supplies, and associated hardware. It is very specialized to this 
practice, for particle accelerator, radar, star wars, and similar RF 
applications. The focus is mainly on klystron systems, but gridded 
tubes are included, and pulsed systems are traditional in this 
specialty. The entire document was prepared and funded by Los Alamos 
National Laboratory in 1994, and has just been scanned online. IT IS 
VERY LARGE, 25 Megabytes in size, as a PDF file. It appears that few 
shortcuts or optimizations were made to compress it. For those of you 
on high speed datalinks, ADSL, T1, etc. it might be possible to 
download a copy. Here is the link at our library. Please don't ask me 
to download and print or ship a copy out. I hope this link works from 
"out there".
