Hard as it is to believe, the weekend is over and another five days of the work week lie ahead. It will be at least four more days before you can sleep in again and tend to the yard work, home improvements, camping excursions, sports endeavors, road trips, etc. Even if you love your job, having a time of reprieve is always welcome. Here is a little for you compliments of the July 1971 issue of Radio-Electronics magazine. It included a couple pretty good technology-centric comics. I particularly like the one on page 79 - a theme that occurs in many places. The guy reminds me of an engineer I worked with at Westinghouse Electric's Oceanic Division back in the 1980s.

"That funny little button was for people who look over my shoulder, and keep asking questions about all the funny little buttons." - Page 79

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...
