Help newbie!

Hi! I am in last year of high and want to study for Telecommunications Engeenering in university. What books or tutorials would you recommend me to read to learn the basics of electronic and telecom engeneering like circuits/logic, dsp, etc, but to be understood by someone with highschool knowledge of math and physics???? Thanks in advance!

Go to books.google.com and do a book search with "electronics". Not all of the books' content will be there, but typically you get a good chunk... for free.

Good luck!

Radio Amateur's Handbook, by the (US) Amateur Radio Relay League. It's stuffed full of practical knowledge that they'll never teach you in school, and it's written for folks who never took engineering classes. For all that it's still practically useful: every time I've been in the cube of a 'real' RF engineer I've seen one lurking around somewhere.

I'll second that suggestion ! Mine is over 20 years old and is still relevant today.

Geroge, the bad thing about Albania is that it has no electronics shop and there's not a single chip maker. If you want a component, you have to look hard in audio equipment/TV's repair shops and it has a 1 in million chance that you'll find specifically what you want. I'm going to the American University in Bulgaria to study for Telecom Engeenering so I think there's gonna be a decent supply of these components in their laboratories, but I dont' want to go there in total ignorance, knowing nothing about circuits, so I wanted to do some preparatory practice. Anyway, in any case I'm gonna improvise something. Elton.

You received several excellent suggestions for books. Many others are free (to some extent) for reading, though they may skip pages leaving gaps. Nonetheless, valuable and fun information can be had. Use your imagination. Good luck with your future.

For example, check this one, which has much of what you need and want:
