So when Hubert Kruger, then one of Kopfermanns assistants, wanted to launch a search for rf spectra in solids, I was a natural choice and was signed on as his doctoral student. Prompted by the work of Pound (1) on <100 KHz quadrupole splittings in the NMR lines of single ionic crystals, Kruger suggested to me to choose a suitable compound, grow a single crystal as large as a child's head and build a superregenerative spectrometer (see Figure 1) as described by Roberts (2) and begin a search for the zero magnetic-

Microwave Spectroscopy in Oxford: The Early Years Remarks on the Occasion of Receiving the 1983 ISMAR Award
The first measurements of spectra at microwave frequencies using modern techniques were made before the end of World War II. The reason for this was that the frequency of 2k GHz (a wavelength of 12.5 mm; known as "K-band") had been picked by the Radiation Laboratory at M.I.T. for a precision radar system.
