IMD Tester

I designed and built a state-of-the-art Intermodulation Distortion (IMD) tester for use in my home lab. I prepared an article describing the unit for possible publication in the ARRL's QEX magazine where I thought it might be useful to other experimenters. It was summarily rejected, and here is the rather rude rejection letter from Kasimierz "Kaz" Siwiak, KE4PT Editor, QEX:

Here is the article: IMD and Phase Noise Test Instrument
