Here is a compendium of 36 chapters of ham radio tecnical tips, operating insights and storytelling, covering a wide range of topics of interest to all hams. From seasoned ops, to beginners, to those studying for their first license; there is something here for everyone. The technical chapters highlight valuable techniques that have been known for years but are rarely shared or written about. They've been chosen because they are actionable. Follow those chapters to build a better station that's easier to operate, while saving time and money. The book contains no advanced math. It's the author's conviction that if you can handle a four-function calculator you can have a ball on the air and appreciate and use every chapter of this book. Age-old questions such as Do I need a balun to feed a dipole? are answered. The chapters on What's the best radio? and What's the best antenna? may surprise you. There are also some humorous chapters and humorous comments throughout. This book isn't dry - ham radio is fun after all! This book has been written to help you get the most from your ham radio experiences. This is the first of two Ham Radio Tips and Tales books. Ham Radio Tips & Tales Volume II, published in late 2025, offers 38 more chapters of technical insights and fun-for-everyone storytelling. 73, N4GG
