Wax nostalgic about and learn from the history of early electronics. See articles from Radio-Electronics, published 1930-1988. All copyrights hereby acknowledged.

Here are three more electronics-themed comics for you, these from a 1949 issue of Radio−Electronics magazine. The first one is probably still a concern for parents today, although the dilemma would probably be with the kid fiddling with the remote control rather than with the buttons on the TV set. The second might require you to be old enough to remember when both doctors and electronics servicemen made house calls. The third comics is my favorite due to its cleverness at portraying what was a common occurrence with boys wanting to watch a baseball game but not having the money for entrance to the ballpark. Spanky and the gang of The Little Rascals used to pull that stunt a lot. I took the liberty of colorizing the comics.

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...
