What better way (that can be done in an office or lab environment) is there to end a long week of work than with a few electronics-themed comics - in this case from a 1961 issue of Radio-Electronics magazine (he asks rhetorically)? As can be seen by viewing some of the other comics of the era, these are concerned with the two biggest crazes of the day - television and stereophonic systems. In particular, there was an ongoing low-level war persisting between homeowners and servicemen. It was and is no different that what exits today between owners and repair services for auto, appliance, computer, and other forms of personal possessions. I took the liberty of colorizing all of the comics, so if something looks odd, don't blame the artist ;-)

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. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail" when a new message arrived... |
