Default old valve text book

Do any of you recognise this book:

http://img21.imagevenue.com/img.php?...e=8e0_book.jpg

I inherited it from my Grandfather, but unfortunately my dad (or one of my

uncles) ripped the cover off, tore out a few pages & scribbled on some of

the pages.

The references at the end of each chapter are all earlier than 1939, so I

would imagine to book was written around then.

I'd love to get hold of an intact copy.

Cheers,

Simon

Simon,
You might try also rec.antiques.radio+phono. A lot of knowledgeable
people there, too. I'd like to know what book it is, myself.

Looks to be Radiotron Designer's Handbook, 3rd Edition, P. Langford
Smith, 1941,... or RDH3 for short.


Spot-on, excellent!
Thanks very much - I did post on rec.antiques.radio+phono as well, but have
not had a reply there yet.

Cheers!
Simon

RDH4 is in print. Highly recommended.
Enjoy!

Get a copy of RDH4, it superceeds RDH3 anyway. Though for your
semental reasons, a copy of RDH4 would be good to have a complete copy
of.

PDFs of RDH4 can be downloaded from

RDH3 - a very good simple intro. RDH4 is much tougher
going but much more complete, maybe a bit daunting for
a beginner.
