Here is your custom made Electronics-themed crossword puzzle for October 23rd,
2022. All RF Cafe crossword puzzles are custom made by me, Kirt Blattenberger, and
have only words and clues related to RF, microwave, and mm-wave engineering, optics,
mathematics, chemistry, physics, and other technical subjects. As always, this crossword
contains no names of politicians, mountain ranges, exotic foods or plants, movie
stars, or anything of the sort unless it/he/she is related to this puzzle's technology
theme (e.g.,
Reginald Denny or the
Tunguska
event in Siberia). The technically inclined cruciverbalists amongst us will appreciate
the effort. Enjoy!
