The ARRL Handbook for Radio Communications 2013
The ARRL Handbook for Radio Communications is widely recognized as being the standard reference among radio amateurs and other technologists—experimenters, engineers and students. The fields of radio and electronics are constantly evolving, and no other publication provides as accurate a snapshot of the state of the art as The ARRL Handbook.
Dozens of contributing experts and technical editors have helped fill these pages with essential information from across the expanse of radio communication fundamentals and practical applications. Clear and thorough explanations cover nearly every aspect of radio and antenna design, equipment construction, and station assembly.
A lot has changed since the The Handbook was first published in 1926. But just as was said of the ninth edition can be said of this 90th edition: Anyone who is at all interested in the technical side of radio can ill afford to be without The Radio Amateur’s Handbook.
Always Updated! Here are just a few of the new projects and new content included in this latest edition:
New antenna projects, including a Low-band Quad, Delta Loops, Coaxial Dipoles for VHF or UHF, and a Skeleton Slot for 14-30 MHz
New material on power supply polarity protection circuits
144 MHz band-pass filter for reducing harmonics
Updated Pebble Crusher QRP transmitter construction project
Design software on CD-ROM, including Elsie™ filter and Pi-El matching networks
…and more!
CD-ROM Included! The CD-ROM includes all of the fully searchable text and illustrations in the printed book, as well as expanded supplemental content, software, PC board templates and other support files.
System Requirements: Windows® 7, Windows Vista®, or Windows® XP, as well as Macintosh® systems, using Adobe® Acrobat® Reader® software. The Acrobat Reader is a free download at www.adobe.com. PDF files are Linux readable.

I bought the hardback version and am really disappointed. The hobby of ham radio is expanding in scope as technology improves. The ARRL is letting this manual go stale and missing good coverage of topics like EME, Meteor Scatter in order to focus on the traditional topics related to HF.
I am a member of the arrl and I am a significant contributor to their cause. In short I am very supportive of them and their mission.
This book is an exception to what is otherwise a great organization.
I wasted my money. I do not recommend the 2013 version. Sorry guys.
