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 a 1967 issue of Electronics World magazine. It is a fairly dense grid. A majority of the clues and words are electronics- or technology-related. Even more than half a century after its creation, anyone who is reading this should be able to complete it with no problem. Only 5 Down might be in foreign territory to Millennials or younger, but but is easily guessed since only the last letter does not have a crossing word to help. Enjoy! Mr. Kimsey created many crosswords for Electronics World, including May 1967, December 1965, September 1967, and January 1965.

About RF Cafe 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.
