This book presents the basics of building various types of amplifiers, the most widely used in the composition of modern specialized radio receivers, as well as the principles of building digital radio receivers. The rapid development of modern telecommunications systems, aviation equipment, and space systems for various functional purposes, as well as new information technologies, is inextricably linked with the theory of building radio receivers. Radio receivers are an integral part of the radio line, which largely determine the quality of its operation, both in normal operating conditions and in a complex interference environment. Since the creation of the first lightning detector in 1895, the technique of radio receiving devices went a long way to the development of modern automated digital systems.

This book provides a short introduction to transistor based Audio Amplifier and AM radio receiver circuit design. Chapters 1 - 7 are concerned with differential amplifiers. They provide the necessary background for chapters 8 - 11 which are concerned with the design of an audio amplifier circuit. Audio amplifiers are used to amplify a low audio signal (increase its "loudness") and drive the resulting amplified audio signal through a speaker. This book covers the design of a transistor based audio amplifier that can be readily built on a breadboard. Chapter 12 is concerned with the design of a transistor based AM medium wave radio receiver. It ties nicely to the audio amplifier circuit designed in previous chapters, for the same audio circuit is reused to amplify the audio that's extracted by radio receiver circuit from the AM radio wave. Some AM radio receiver designs require a special type of diode, but the design covered in this book can be implemented with any ordinary diode (any Silicon Diode such as the common 1N4148 diode). The radio circuit can also be built on a breadboard like the audio amplifier, although in case of the radio circuit, it's preferable to solder it. 0.

I hope to fix many of these issues in upcoming editions, and also expand the book. What with imperfections and all, I nonetheless believe the book to be worthwhile, even as it is right now, for those interested in the subject. But if you know yourself as typically unable to overlook linguistic and other imperfections, the book might not be the best choice for you at the moment (although it may well be in the future, when updated editions are released). __ First edition: 03/14/2021

This fascinating book provides a stimulating introduction to analog electronics by analysing the design and construction of a radio transceiver. Essential theoretical background is given along with carefully designed laboratory and homework exercises. The author begins with a thorough description of basic electronic components and simple circuits and goes on to describe the key elements of radio electronics, including filters, amplifiers, oscillators, mixers, and antennas. Laboratory exercises lead the reader through the design, construction, and testing of a popular radio transceiver (the NorCal 40A). A diskette containing the widely known circuit simulation software, Puff, is included in the book. This was the first book to deal with elementary electronics in the context of radio. It can be used as a textbook for introductory analog electronics courses, for more advanced undergraduate classes on radio-frequency electronics, and will also be of great interest to electronics hobbyists and radio enthusiasts.
