[Premium-Rx] Books

[w3jn]

The Rhode book is outstanding, if you want a thorough understanding of the
interdynamics of receiver design choices.  Although you don't need an
engineering degree to understand it, and he presents many practical
examples, it's not a book for someone with a limited understanding of
electronics.

Rhode also wrote one of the best books on synthesizers ever.  That one is a
bit more theoretical, but again, he presents many practical examples.

Neither of these books really reviews or compares particular receivers,
their features, etc.  They are geared toward the engineer.

I highly recommend both.
