As Project Manager for the 7L18 I
would like to express my thanks to
those who contributed so much
to the success of the project.
Bob Bales worked on the sweep,
span attenuator, YIG driver, and
instrument-interconnect; Russell
Brown and George Maney did the
microprocessor programming; Carlos Beeck and James Wolf mechanical design of the microwave
assemblies, with Dave Shores and
Philip Snow providing the electrical design; IF design was done by
Wesley Hayward; Jack Reynolds
was involved in the early design of
the phase lock circuitry with Steve
Morton completing the work; Don
Kirkpatrick designed the digital
storage IC's with Dennis Smith
doing the front panel and digital
storage board; Al Huegli was responsible for the outstanding job of
mechanical design. Virginia Morehead was indispensable in providing prototype support, as were the
plant support people during introduction. Many other names should
be included in this list but space
doesn't allow. Mv thanks to each
