The ARRL books are probably the most practical introduction to RF design.

They were the size of a phone book, but worth reading while taking an EE course.

Ask your local library to get a copy for you.

I am afraid so. That was my reaction 20 years ago when I saw it in the Stanford U book store.
After a quick overview I was hooked and I still use it regularly. It is a classic and still in print in updated form AFAIK.
It is worth looking at the other electronics stuff (not books but real life) the authors (Horowits in particular with SETI, I think) have done over the years for radio astronomy and such.

If you can, get a library copy or browse in a book store and go over your planned list before buying each book. I have found that it was useful over they years before investing and building my library up, apart from the specs type books of course.
