specification differentiates between conducted and radiated Inter-
ference and prescribes the exact method of test. The frequency range is
from. 14 kilocycles to 1000 megacycles which permits radiation
measurements within T.V. band. Some relaxation will be necessary
for Agency equipment under the requirement of this specification..
MIL-T-16910(SHIPS) stipulates receiver and transmitter ocsillator
(ke)r up) radiation as not to exceed 400 micromicrowatts and trans-
mdtter marrier radiation (other than fundamental) as down 90 decibels.
The latter is considerably more stringent than the 5,g? of the
fundamental presently specified for the RS-6.
5. Copies of MIL-T-16910(agIPS) are being procured for the
laboratory and it is contemplated that formal amendments to the .
RS-6 aud R9-6A. specifications will be made to include ..a conducted
interference measurement and a radiation interference measurement
with specific limits for low order harmonic radiation and additionsi
limitations for radiation within the T.V. spectrum.
6. During the morning of 18 February 1954, a meeting was held
to discuss matters concerning contractual business. Those present
were:
This period 'was devoted chiefly to dimussions relating to price
quotations; changes and requests covered by formal correspondence.
