Vacuum Tube Amplifiers by George E. Valley and Henry Wallman (1948): 761 pages

Format: PDF IN ZIP, Language: English

"The tremendous research and development effort that went into the
development of radar and related techniques during World War II
resulted not only in hundreds of radar sets for military (and some for
possible peacetime) use but also in a great body of information and new
techniques in the electronics and high-frequency fields. Because this
basic material may be of great value to science and engineering, it seemed
most important to publish it as soon as security permitted."
