Electronic Crosswords
May 1963 Electronics World

May 1963 Electronics World

May 1963 Electronics World Cover - RF Cafe  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.

This "Electronic Crosswords" puzzle appeared in the May 1963 edition of Electronics World magazine. If you happen to be an avid cruciverbalist, then you might want to try a few of the RF and microwave engineering themed crosswords that I have been publishing weekly for a decade. Unlike the crosswords I create that use only science- and technology-related words and clues, this one does contain a few common words for fill-ins. Donald Moffatt create many such crosswords.
