In our ongoing quest to find and republish the best military manuals, we have turned our attention to the field of radio communication. Two outstanding reference publications are the Marine Corps’ Radio Operator (MCRP 3-40.3B) and Antenna (MCRP 8-10B.11) Handbooks. These are both great fundamental books that cover RF propagation, field equipment, basic operation, and communication principles, so we combined them into one easy-to-reference handbook.
Like all T.REX ARMS reprints, we have re-typeset these books with new, highly legible fonts, clearer graphics, better page numbers, and other minor quality-of-life improvements. Additionally, we have removed some redundant appendices that were shared between the two books and added an all-new appendix of commonly used civilian radio frequencies in bands that will be more directly useful to our civilian readers.
