New for May 2008! Thanks
to several alert Microwaves101 fans (Steve, Kerry, Matthew, Randall,
Joe to name a few...) we have our own copy of the Navy's Electronic
Warfare and Radar Systems Handbook. This is a public domain
document originally released in 1997, free for everyone, and now
it's conveniently located here at Microwaves101.com for the rest
of time!

Here's the entire handbook all
zipped up if you want it.
