RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling 2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while typing up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...

These images have been chosen for their uniqueness. Subject matter ranges from historic events, to really cool phenomena in science and engineering, to relevant place, to ingenious contraptions, to interesting products (which now has its own dedicated Featured Product category).

While doing a little research about a Popular Electronics article, I ran across some examples of electronic component art / sculpture. A Google image search on the topic yields hundreds of results, with most being duplicates. I always try to locate the original image so as to give proper credit to the designer, but more often that not the pictures are posted on websites without a reference. To avoid unfairly attracting attention from the creator's work, I always use thumbnails and provide hyperlinks to the websites where I found them, even if those websites are not the originals. My favorite electronic sculpture by far is "L.E.D. Zeppelin," primarily because of the cleverness of it, but also because Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven," released in 1971, has always been one of my favorite songs (as it was to a large portion of kids growing up in the 1970's - even non-druggies like myownself[sic]).
