[Rogers, Ron]

For those interested, here is the clean link to the PFD files for download or viewing.

 Interesting stuff in those documents.

FYI> 
John Kraus (former W8JK and developer of Helical antenna) also worked at the Rad lab back during the war and specialized in UHF & SHF design work for the military. Later, as professor at Ohio State University, he was the one that developed the famous "Big Ear" radio telescope antenna at OSU.

It doesn't matter how beautiful your theory is, it doesn't matter how smart
you are.  If it doesn't agree with experiment, it's wrong.

Following WW II, the MIT Radiation Labs published a landmark set of books
on all aspects of RADAR, in 28 volumes!

For years, they have been much sought after as references, and much of the
material is still valid. Recently, on another list, the following link was
published:

http://cer.ucsd.
<http://cer.ucsd.edu/~james/notes/MIT%20OpenCourseWare/MIT%20Radiation%20Lab
/> edu/~james/notes/MIT%20OpenCourseWare/MIT%20Radiation%20Lab/

The ENTIRE series is available there as FREE download. WOW!! The only down
side is that some of the pictures are pretty dark.

Well worth inconveniencing a few zillion electrons, IMO.

Best,
-John
