You may want to look at the classic
Introduction to Radio Frequency Design
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0872594920/ref=pd_sxp_elt_l1/104-5883192-9567125
by Wes Hayward, W7ZOI, and also his new (2003)
Experimental Methods in RF Design
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0872598799/qid%3D1073068310/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr_11_1/104-5883192-9567125
These are both ARRL published. First rate and practical.
