Published by (an imprint of Elsevier) on January 10, 2001, this 304-page volume (ISBN-10: 0750673311) is part of a broader bibliography that has taught generations of "Evil Geniuses" and electronics hobbyists. While it provides the technical knowledge to build unauthorized broadcasting equipment, its primary value is as an educational tool for exploring the fascinating physics of wireless communication.
The text encourages understanding how a circuit works, rather than just copying it, which is vital for troubleshooting and modifying designs. If you need the exact title as it
Pros:
This detailed table of contents reveals the book's strength: it is a literal cookbook of circuits. Each project is presented with a basic diagram, a bill of materials, and instructions. The book is not about deep theoretical dives, but about hands-on construction. The text encourages understanding how a circuit works,
Circuits for both UHF and VHF video broadcasting, allowing users to send television signals.
Projects that can be built on breadboards or PCB. The book is not about deep theoretical dives,
Braga famously shows you how to build a using a 1N34A germanium diode and a multimeter. Without a spectrum analyzer (expensive in 2000), this probe is how you'd tune your tank circuits.
If you find this book:
Dust off your soldering station. Order a bag of 2N3904s and a roll of magnet wire. Locate a copy of Braga’s masterpiece. And start investigating. The airwaves are a laboratory—enter with respect, curiosity, and a printed schematic.
