The handbook and the operating manual did alot to help me with the issues you are talking about.  However, I wouldn't call antenna radiation nonsense.  The tech exam is supposed to start you on the basics of amateur radio's technical side and how radio works, not the etiquette of how to work stations.  Just listening can help you out with that.
