ARRL Handbook


I recently acquired a new (2018) ARRL Handbook.  It is crammed with facts and figures, but unlike the old handbook that I have, a 2010 one, there are no projects to make.  Projects and additional reading material are mentioned, but you have to download them from the ARRL.  

On the ARRL shop page, it’s another US$49.95, but the handbook contains a code that gives you 100% discount and you get about an 800MB PDF file to download.  

The code in the Handbook can be used only once, so if you ever buy a second hand ARRL Handbook, where there is a code on the second page, make sure you get a copy of the download from whoever is selling it.  The file has an installer, but that's not really essential as all the useful data is in PDF format.

With the combination of the handbook and the download, there is certain a stack of information to keep you busy in the evenings, when the propagation is low.
