Rothammels Antenna Book

This 1500-page publication has been cited as the "greatest book ever" on
antennas. Is that true?

Anyone with firsthand experience, how does it compare to the ARRL Antenna
Book (or others)?

Thanks.

Re: Rothammels Antenna Book

The book (1600 pages) is extremely valuable , systematic and professional.

Since 2019 (first English Edition) it also covers, among others, the North American-English speaking- HAM antenna related technology sector.

Many international references and patent sources are outlined .

The book combines systematically HAM (Basics, VLF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF) practical applications and puts the focus on why/understanding physics.

I have not seen anything that big/detailed and comprehensive in recent US HAM Literature.

PS: I am not getting any royalties from DL DARC , nor am I a sales gay! 😉

In reply to this post by Lyn WØLEN

Hi Lyn,

Its an excellent antenna book but its more of a reference book than
a "how to" book. Its definitely not an alternative to the ARRL
Antenna Book. If you don't have either book, for most hams the
ARRL Antenna Book is the better first investment .
