Definitely Not Rohde & Schwarz Has Frequencies—and No Taste

Editorial interest 86/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An unofficial parody of a precision-engineering website, rebuilt as a 1998-style fever dream of gradients, fake hype, and signal-themed jokes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

The parody borrows the conventions of an equipment-company homepage—product numbering, precision language, bold calls to action, and technical abbreviations—then deliberately sabotages them with gradients and jokes. Three featured items receive their own sections: MXO 5, FSWX, and SMW200A. The page also includes a guestbook prompt, a visitor counter reading 000042069, and a “Vibes Analyzer” displaying 1337 MHz.
