SUBJECT . Progress Report on th System
1. Attached is a brief statistical summary of the reports
transmittedl in the teletype system.
The latest overall average time from transmission to distribution
of these reports is slightly over six days. The people managing
the program feel, however, that this time can be improved considerably.
2. In addition to the above, flexowriters are now in operation
and the first reports have been received
from these stations. The reports are being transmitted
by the =high volume transmitter and are therefore coming in
much faster than the pouched tapes. is expected
to begin operations within the very near future.
3. DDS people are working with IBM and expect that a much
improved tape producing typewriter will be available in 1961 to
replace the flexowriter.
4. The people operating the I system seem to be convinced
that it is a good system and that with the new IBM equipment and
increased experience we should eventually get the great bulk of
our reports with very rapid service.
