Introduction

I've created this blog to track my design efforts in the area of RF electronics.  This is a new field to me, so I'm learning as I go.  However, I've had quite a bit of experience in digital and analog circuit design including high-frequency digital.  So I'm familiar with topics such as transmission lines and impedance matching.

My focus is on low-cost but trying to maximize performance.  I recently received my first RF component - the RTL-SDR dongle.  It's difficult for me to compare performance to other receivers, but it seems to work well for me out of the box with SDR# using the guidance provided on their website.

I haven't been publishing my blogs yet, but I think I will publish them all at once now.
