This custom made Wireless Technology theme crossword puzzle from RF Cafe is for
August 28th, 2022. "Across" words consisting of five or more letters begin with
the first letter of this puzzle's theme. All RF Cafe crossword puzzles are
custom made by me, Kirt Blattenberger, and have only words and clues related to
RF, microwave, and mm-wave engineering, optics, mathematics, chemistry, physics,
and other technical subjects. As always, this crossword puzzle contains no names
of politicians, mountain ranges, exotic foods or plants, movie stars, or anything
of the sort unless it/he/she is related to this puzzle's technology theme (e.g.,
Reginald Denny or the
Tunguska
event in Siberia). The technically inclined cruciverbalists amongst us will appreciate
the effort. Enjoy!
