[Microwave] Polaplexer

[Dr. Gerald N. Johnson]

I googled W6VIX Polaplexor and one of the three hits was a 73 magazine a 
30 mb download that has an article on 10 GHz Polaplexor.
https://www.google.com/search?as_q=w6vix+polaplexor&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&lr=&cr=&as_qdr=all&as_sitesearch=&as_occt=any&safe=images&as_filetype=&as_rights=

Changing the search to W6IFE Polaplexor turned up several more hits 
including articles in Ham Radio magazine that the links download. There 
might be more by putting the hyphen in Pola-plexor.
