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...

Wireless Technology Crossword Puzzle
June 11,
2017
|
|
This week's crossword puzzle has a wireless technology theme with words which
are terms you will find in news stories and text books. Avid cruciverbalists amongst us appreciate that each week I create
a new 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!
