Salty Walt's Next Level Portable Antenna Sketchbook [
https://home.arrl.org/action/Store/Product-Details/productId/2094335552 ] expands on the easygoing, field-tested style that made his first book a favorite among radio amateurs.
Where Salty Walt's Portable Antenna Sketchbook [
https://home.arrl.org/action/Store/Product-Details/productId/2026924035 ] focused on beachside builds and creative wire antennas, the new volume
ventures into even more concepts while keeping the designs approachable.
Readers will still find practical, deployable antennas designed for parks, beaches, and backyard operating, but this time Walt explores ideas like
phased arrays, beam-forming, and higher-gain directional arrays r-" all presented in his familiar notebook-sketch style. Order Now [
