This is a presentation that I did for the North East Radio Group on Getting Started in Microwaves on Ultra High Frequency (UHF), Super High Frequency even all the way up to Optical Radio (THF band)! I cover my experiences, the stuff we do with our local club experiments, equipment and achievements as well as the fun that can be had with microwaves.
