Avid cruciverbalists amongst us will appreciate this new RF & Microwave crossword puzzle that
has a theme related to engineering, mathematics, chemistry, physics, and other technical words. You
will never be asked the name of a movie star unless he/she was involved in a technical endeavor (e.g., Hedy Lamarr).
Enjoy!
