Convention Center in Honolulu are (from left) Marti and Barry
Wallen with Dave and Janet O'Neil. The 2007 IEEE International
Symposium on EMC will be held in Honolulu. |
I am pleased whenever I learn that folks are
actually reading the Newsletter. I never take this for granted,
as I know we live in an age of "information overload"
and just reading all the e-mails we receive can be a daily challenge!
Every once in a while I get a letter, e-mail or phone call with
comments from readers. It's always good to hear from our readers,
so do contact your Editor or any of the Associate Editors should
something stand out in the Newsletter.
An example of a reader "success story" occurred with
our last issue. One reader saw the letter from Clayton Paul in
the Winter 2003 issue wherein Clayton was requesting a donation
of any used, good quality test equipment for his EMC lab at Mercer
University. Next thing I knew, I got a call from Dr. Paul stating
that he received a donation of a gently used HP 8568B spectrum
analyzer! Guess his writing that letter was worth the time and
effort!
Let's keep the dialogue going! Let us hear from you about the
Newsletter.
