Re: Rejector or rejecter?
Any excuse suffices to send me trotting up to the landing to consult a volume of the OED, where "rejecter", meaning somebody who rejects, is traced back to 1570. The alternative "rejector" with the same meaning is first recorded in 1752, and is always employed for the electronic circuit, where the earliest quotes supplied are from a Wireless World article in July 1923.
