                    (A minor treatise on radio theory)

                         By: Steve J. Quest, BSEE


     Preface

     For most people associated with radio, either as users or producers, the
need to know how radio works is, for the most part, unimportant.  For the
amateur radio broadcaster however, this need to know is crucial.  Amateur or
`MicroPower' broadcasting is currently forbidden in many countries, tho its
popularity is growing.  Since there is relatively little information
available to the MicroPower enthusiast, I have been asked to prepare a minor
treatise on the subject of radio theory.  This primer will be written
specifically to educate those interested in MicroPower broadcasting, with no
assumption made to any prior electronic and/or radio knowledge.  I hope this
text will prove very helpful in developing an intuitive understanding of the
principles of AM, FM, and FM Stereo radio broadcasting.
