Review # 1 was written on 2017-11-16 00:00:00 Chris Davis With my technical knowledge - or lack there of - about radar, current, radio waves and the like I found this book a real tough one to read. I was lost time and time again. However, this is not the author to blame but me. And I did get an idea of the timeline and challenges The book is well written and I am sure that readers with a well founded and basic knowledge of radio and electricity terms and interest in radar will enjoy this book. Dig in and enjoy
