Ward Silver\u003c\/b\u003e has the experience of a 20-year career as an electrical engineer developing instrumentation and medical electronics. He also spent 8 years in broadcasting, both programming and engineering. In 2000 he turned to teaching and writing as a second career. He is a contributing editor to the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and author of the popular “Hands-On Radio” column in QST magazine every month. He is the author of the ARRL’s Amateur Radio license study guides and numerous other articles. He developed the ARRL’s online courses, “Antenna Design and Construction,” “Analog Electronics,” and “Digital Electronics.” Along with his comedic alter-ego, Dr Beldar, Ward is a sought-after speaker and lecturer among “hams.” When not in front of a computer screen, you will find Ward working on his mandolin technique and compositions.  \u003cb\u003eDO-IT-YOURSELF\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHere's the fun and easy way to start building circuits for your projects\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHave you ever wanted to build your own electronic device?
