Radio Technology Theme Crossword Puzzle
August 21st, 2022

This custom made Radio Technology theme crossword puzzle from RF Cafe is for August 21st, 2022. "Down" words consisting of four 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!
