Im currently reading through it myself. Whole 5th and 6th chapters are about signal generators. Important, but two chapters is unnecessary. Great book so far though.

Hi I bought the 4 DVD set from Brets Old Radios Restoration at www.bretsoldradios@att.net they were a great help. If you contact him they run $19.95 a disc. They really helped with the electronics and refinishing. I still need to ask the electronic pro's on this site questions but not nearly as many as I use to. Great DVD set. Happy Tinkering
