After intense discussion, consultation, and rumination, (i.e., the suggestion of my 9th grade daughter, Jasmine), I have changed the title of my tome-in-making.
The Opus of Amateur Radio Knowledge and Lore is more in keeping with the mystery and mystique I wish to portray in this work. Handbook is so.....so....ARRL. http://www.qrz.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

No, it's the sound my mother-in-law uttered when she fell on her butt on ice once.
