Abstract :
The 1970 IEEE G-MTT International Symposium was well attended with a total of over 580 registrants. The Newporter Inn, Newport Beach, CA, USA, provided an ideal location for the Symposium; this setting was enhanced even further by the pleasant weather. If the four-day schedule with many multiple sessions seemed overly long to some, it had the advantage of permitting a wide range of papers and subjects to be presented. The listed technical program was supplemented by several late news items that were added to appropriate sessions. An overview of the conference events is given.
