August 1965 Electronics World

Table of Contents

Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Electronics World, published May 1959 - December 1971. All copyrights hereby acknowledged.

Kick back at the end of work today and enjoy this triad of electronics-themed comics from vintage Radio & Television News and Electronics World magazines. Other than an occasional contest to create a caption for a comic drawing, when is the last time you saw a comic in a technical magazine? Where has the humor gone? Is everyone so afraid of offending someone that comics have been banned by lawsuit-fearful editors? You have my invitation to create a good-humored cartoon about me or RF Cafe anytime you wish, and I promise not to sue you. I'll even post it here on the website if you like.

BTW, these comics make good fodder for opening your technical presentations.

These Technically−Themed Comics Appeared in Vintage Electronics Magazines. I personally scanned and posted every one from copies I own (and even colorized some).

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 tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived...
