I am wanting to build a simple RF amplifier to boost the signal to my
television, and then use the knowledge I gained in that project to build a
second RF amplifier to boost and filter the signals I receive on my
Shortwave radio (which I connect to a random-wire antenna up on the roof.)
I have a background in electronics (with the exceptions listed earlier) and
would like to keep on learning in this new direction. I do have a simple
workshop set up (again, after 20 years) and am basically seeking to pick up
the hobby again.

I realize I started out by making a fool of myself, but really am serious
and would appreciate any help anyone could offer.

Thanks,

Dave
