Rick…   it sounds like you are hot for the book…  The Easy Way….  this level of 
frustration can’t be allowed to go unquenched.  I’m dropping it in the mail 
over at Ace….. I’ll use the address in the Club Roster…

What Jeff had found is a re-type document of the 11 page The Easy Way "booklet" 
put out by W9INN Antennas in Illinois.   It looked familiar, so I dug into my 
many file drawers of antenna information and found the actual booklet (courtesy

it states that " This booklet contains the first chapter of John's book by the

and antenna information.   That list is currently very short, as I have, 
luckily, been able to find in the past 10 years, everything that I desired.

 

Let's keep looking in all of the on-line book stores.  A copy will pop up.   

 

Anyone on the reflector have a copy of the book?   I'd be willing to copy it 
and digitize it for the benefit of the group.

Free book cont'd -- The Easy Way -- John Haerle  WB5IIR

 

To those interested in The Easy Way -- HF Antenna book.

 

What Jeff had found is a re-type document of the 11 page The Easy Way "booklet" 
put out by W9INN Antennas in Illinois.   It looked familiar, so I dug into my 
many file drawers of antenna information and found the actual booklet (courtesy 
of my friend K5BDZ--SK).   Here's the bad news.On the back of this pamphlet 
it states that " This booklet contains the first chapter of John's book by the 
same name"   So gents, we have yet to find a complete copy of The Easy 
Way.about 96 pages long.   I have put it on my list of "to be found" books 
and antenna information.   That list is currently very short, as I have, 
luckily, been able to find in the past 10 years, everything that I desired.

 

Let's keep looking in all of the on-line book stores.  A copy will pop up.   

 

Anyone on the reflector have a copy of the book?   I'd be willing to copy it 
and digitize it for the benefit of the group.

Re: [BVARC] Free Antenna Book On Line

[Jonathan Guthrie via BVARC]

You do hear a lot of nonsense about antennas and grounds and stuff.

At least I think it's nonsense.  I skimmed some of the articles in the 
PDF and it seems like the writer thought of as nonsense some of the same 
stuff that I think of as nonsense.  So, I dodged a bullet there.

Thanks for the link… I got the pdf.  I used to enjoy reading Kurt.   A play on 
the sterba curtain  antenna name.   I don’t know his real name.  I think he 
called his wife Lil Pistol.  I miss World Radio.

Have you ever seen this one?….  also a good read.
