[TriEmbed] June 14th meeting heads up

[Pete Soper]

We will have our normal monthly meeting on Monday 6/14 at 7:00 pm, but 
we're giving a special heads up to help tune the agenda for a super 
quality introduction to radio frequency theory by Kevin McClaning. Think 
about your experience level and what you'd like to learn and pass your 
thoughts along to the presenter using Kevin's mailto link below.

----------bio

Kevin McClaning has a master's degree in electrical engineering from the 
Johns Hopkins University (JHU). He spent 34+ years performing technical 
design tasks for the US Department of Defense, and another three years 
at various contractor facilities. He also spent 10 years teaching 
master's degree-level courses at JHU. He is the co-author of /Radio 
Receiver Design/ , published in 2000 (ISBN 1-884932-07-X) and the sole 
author of /Wireless Receiver Design for Digital Communications/, 
published in 2012 (ISBN978-1-891121-80-7). Kevin can be reached at 
kevin at doublepulsetech.com.

-------presentation abstract potential topics (could be extended) and 
attendee assumptions

Topics might include:

. Radio frequency design is understandable and often predictable, but 
sometime not.
. Properties of RF circuits
. Stray components
. Physical size of your circuit vs. wavelength
. Transmission lines

Familiarity with basic circuits, resistors, inductors and capacitors 
will be useful.
There will be a minor amount of algebra.
