The broadcasts, press agency transmissions, and publi- cations which do not announce their true countries of origin are grouped into "Clandestine" sections. ELECTRONIC COVERAGE The sourcelines within each country section are arranged in the following order: international voicecasts from the chief broadcast- ing city international voicecasts from other cities in alphabetical order domestic voicecasts from the chief broadcasting city domestic voicecasts from other cities in alphabeti- cal order telecasts international presscasts domestic presscasts Within each of these groups official transmissions precede semi-official and private ones, national services precede regional services, and network broad- casts precede local separations. Otherwise, sourcelines are arranged in alphabetical order of language whenever the principal difference among them is the language. PUBLICATIONS COVERAGE The publications from each country are arranged in the following order: publications from the national capital publications from other cities in alphabetical order The sourcelines for each city are arranged in alphabetical order of the publications' standardized titles, definite articles included when FBIS uses them. Titles are not translated but they are transliterated whenever the originals use other than the Roman alphabet. As indicated below, some column headings are used only for electronic coverage and others only for publications coverage. The TIMES (electronic coverage only) are expressed in Greenwich Mean Time (EST+S hours or EDT+4 hours) and they show the nominal starting time and ending time for each item of coverage. "0000" stands for the first moment of the GMT day and "2400" the last moment. If a cast does not adhere to a fixed schedule, the listing shows the nominal starting time followed by an ending time chosen to show the usual duration of the cast. The bureaus sustain intercept and recording as long as is necessary to monitor the entire cast. The broadcasts under each sourceline are arranged so that the earliest coverage of the local broadcast day is listed first. Listings for press transmissions start with the agency's first cast of its transmission day. The DAYS TRANSMITTED (electronic coverage) and DAYS PUBLISHED (publications coverage) are indicated by initials of the days of the week, with certain exceptions. The word "daily" is substituted for transmissions and publications expected to appear every day. The word "note" indicates a complex schedule which is explained in the NOTES column and the abbreviation "irreg" denotes appearance or coverage on a random basis. The COVERAGE DAYS (electronic coverage only) are the days of transmission which have been scheduled for monitoring. The days of coverage for priority 3 programs and for backstop coverage are listed as irregular. The LAG IN RECEIPT (publications coverage only) is self-explanatory. The USUAL MONITORABILITY (electronic cov- erage only) is indicated by the terms "good," "fair," "poor," or "nil." The ISSUES YEARLY (publications coverage only) are the number of days the item is expected to be published each year. The PRIORITY is the relative certainty and speed of processing given to the coverage item under normal For Official Use Only Approved For Release 2007/09/26 :CIA-RDP89-006428000100020001-7 Approved For Release 2007/09/26 :CIA-RDP89-006428000100020001-7 For Official Use Only circumstances. Priorities may be overridden as cir- cumstances warrant. The priority is indicated by a numeral: 1. (Preferred Coverage)-This coverage takes pre- cedence over all other work. Field bureaus process these transmissions and publications as soon as possible after intercept or receipt. The bureaus should not drop such coverage without the concurrence of Headquar- ters unless arrangements have been made for alternate coverage. 2. (Standard Coverage)-These transmissions and publications are processed on a reasonably current basis-in the field usually within 24 hours of intercept or receipt. 3. (Contingent Coverage)-These coverage items are processed irregularly, as staffing and other considerations allow or as ad hoc projects require. Backstop programs and publications are assigned the same priorities as their primaries but are monitored only when the originals are missed or unmonitorable. The PURPOSE OF COVERAGE is indicated by an alphabetical symbol: G-general coverage producing material for the Daily Report or the FBIS Wire J-coverage taken primarily for use in the publications of the Production Group A-coverage monitored primarily for commen- tary listing B-backstop coverage monitored only when another program or publication is missed E-coverage monitored primarily for reports on economics M-coverage taken primarily to meet require- ments of a monitoring service allied with FBIS W-watch or cruising function, including cover- age of program previews X-coverage monitored for another reason The BUREAU is indicated by a digraph: FBIS AB-Abijan NC-Nicosia AT-Athens OW-Okinawa AU-Vienna PA-Panama BK-Bangkok PY-Paraguay FL-Key West SK-Seoul GF-Gulf TA-Tel Aviv HK-Hong Kong WA-Headquarters JN-Jordan BBC CA-Central African Unit EA-East African Unit JOINT BBC-FBIS LD-London (Caver- sham A program listed with t~vo of these digraphs is intercepted at the first bureau and is processed at the second.
