Abstract
The Johns Hopkins University Radiation Laboratory was located in Baltimore, Maryland. Much of the early research at the Rad. Lab. was on proximity fuzes for surface based anti-aircraft artillery, evolving from World War II R&D. Pioneering work on millimeter wave propagation and component development was a major research effort during the early and mid 50's. The Director was Dr. Donald D. King. During his career Dr. King made many significant and documented contributions to the microwave technology. His career included the holding of many important positions in both the MTT-S and the IEEE culminating in being the President-Elect of the IEEE.
