Howdy - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

-- Anecdotes, Gripes & Humor
-- Antennas
-- CAE, CAD, & Software
-- Circuits & Components

Hmmmm........

I saw RF Cafe mentioned on the RF Globalnet forums. Never heard of this site prior to that, but I do recognize Kirt's name from the RFG forums. The site claims to have been around since 1996, but this is the first I've ever heard of it.

This looks like a pretty good collection of a variety of goods. The humor pages are - humorous :lol:

I'm a crossword puzzle junkie (good exercise for the mind, according to research!), so the engineering puzzles are nice.

It's good to see a commercial website not afraid to exhibit a degree of Amercian patriotism :!:

Keep up the good work. Now that I know about RF Cafe, I'll be back.

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...
