I think Maurie and Jon have hit it: these days, RF is a 'carrier' for the
digital stuff, and the competent engineers go elsewhere - or retire.

Last week I was on a CAD course. Naturally, I argued when told that the CAD
would give me the variation in carrier power with modulation.....and upset
things by pointing out that there's big difference between 'Bit Error Ratio'
(which people generally mean when they refer to BER) and 'Bit Error Rate'. Even
the course teachers get things wrong...
