I want to build / design an RF amplifier that can boost the signal from an AMT-MW207 kit.

Design goals:

• Boost the signal a couple of watts
• AM signal
• 525 - 1605 kHz baseband range

I've been searching for RF amplifier designs but many of them are too big (10's of Watts), or are hard to implement. It's been difficult trying to find something that can instruct me clearly. I'll have to take into account things like impedances and the like.

I have an electronics background, so if you can only point me towards a book or other resource, even that would be helpful.

I'm going to be checking out 'Experimental Methods in RF Design', hopefully it can point me in the right direction.

I just finished listening to Iron War by Matt Fitzgerald. I loved the descriptions of the history of the event, the history of each of the racers, and their future after the race. It helped me feel amped for my own exercise sessions. Are there other books like this?

Excluding Matt Fitzgerald's other books, of course.

Maria Nattestad just dropped a new introduction to the field of bioinformatics.

Foundation skills for bioinformatics:

• Python
• Use the Command Line (e.g. Bash, scripts)
• Statistics - p-values, multiple hypothesis tests

I've used Rosalind in the past to learn about bioinformatics. I solved about 17 of the problems, which is about 6% of the problems on the site.

I think it gave a decent mix of guided learning and letting you figure things out on your own. I would say having some background knowledge in biology and coding would be necessary. It doesn't do a lot of hand holding, but there is some.
