Born in Cambridge,Â*Massachusetts, while his physician father was at Harvard University,Â*the king, whose name translated as strength of the land,Â*incomparable power, was 88. According to noted DXer Fred Laun, K3ZO/HS0ZAR, the king was neverÂ*very active on the air, and, to my knowledge, the only QSOs he everÂ*made were from a handheld on 2 meter FM. He said HS1A was oftenÂ*pictured using a handheld. He also was pictured with a camera, asÂ*photography was one of his passions, and he was a jazz enthusiast,Â*who played the saxophone. The Radio Amateur Society of Thailand (RAST), the countrys IARUÂ*member society, said on its website that the king was presented theÂ*call sign HS1A by the Ministry of Communications at ChitrladaÂ*Palace in 1989 in a ceremony witnessed by RAST officers. He was theÂ*ninth monarch of the Chakri Dynasty, having ascended to the throneÂ*in June of 1946, and was the worlds longest-reigning monarch.

Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) were introduced more than three decades ago, and since then they have evolved, giving way to new generations of FPGAs with better logic density and performance that can be used in a broader range of applications. What 5G engineers can learn from radio interference’s troubled past.Â*The last—and only—radio innovator having no reason to think about interference was Heinrich Hertz, when he fired up the world’s first radio transmitter in 1886. Once he turned on a second one, he created the potential for interference. It’s been a problem ever since. The Munich discovery without which Silicon Valley may never have been born: A resistance story.Â*Georg Simon Ohm, a mathematician and physicist, was born in Bavaria on 18th March 1789. He became fascinated by electricity shortly after electromagnetism was discovered in 1820. At the time, current was measured by measuring the magnetic flux around a wire conductor.
