ARRL Antenna Book Reference

25th Edition Support

  • Overview and Directions-

    This web page is for information that extends or supports the ARRL Antenna Book, 25th edition.  The section for each edition contains links to additional files and software, non-ARRL documents, and errata and corrections. 

     

    Supplemental material is available as a downloadable package that you may access by following the directions printed on page viii of the hardcover, softcover, and four-volume sets. Once installed, use Adobe Reader to access the PDF files.  See the Software folder for HFTA angle-of-arrival files if your installation did not produce a complete, world-wide set of files.

     

    The installation software will create Desktop shortcuts - they will all have the same ARRL-diamond icon and the names will all begin with "ARRL Antenna Book" so it can be hard to tell what each of the shortcuts activates. Holding your cursor over the shortcut will reveal the full name.  You may also rename the shortcuts by right-clicking on the shortcut and selecting Rename.  One suggestion is to use names like "AntBk Contents", "AntBk Suppl", "AntBk SWare", and so forth.


    Some readers report that the 2016 version Adobe Reader Touch, provided with older Microsoft Apps, does not support all of the PDF features.  If this is a problem, download the free Adobe Reader DC from the Adobe website at get.adobe.com/reader which does support the necessary elements, such as bookmarks.  Note that the website for downloads will also download a Google Chrome extension and two McAfee security applications unless you opt out by unchecking the necessary boxes.

     

    Printed-circuit boards for many current and previous Antenna Book projects are available from FAR Circuits.

     

    Previous Editions

    Information in support of previous editions can be found on the ARRL Antenna Book - 24th Edition or ARRL Product Notes page for editions before the 23rd.
