Type D Comsat Station Identified in the USSR (S)
(S/WNINTEL) A new type of communications satellite (comsat) station has been iden-
t ified at three radio communications transmitter stations in the USSR from photography of
The facilities are Yeniseysk Radio Communications and Radio-Relay 25X1
Transmitter Station South okrovka Radio-Relay and High-Frequency 25X1
Transmit ter Station and Yelozovo Navy Radio Communications 25X1
Transmitter Station
('I'SR) This new type of comsat station, designated as type D, is a one-story building, 20
by 1:3 by 4 meters (Figure 1). The antenna pedestals are at the ends of the building, off cen-
ter from the long axis and approximately 18 meters apart. The dimensions of the type I)
comsat station are the same as those for the type A and B comsat stations except that the
overall length of the type D building is 6 meters shorter (Figure 2).
(S/WNINTEL) No antennas were observed at the three new comsat stations. However,
they will each probably have two antennas, as do the types A, B, and C 25X1
comsat stations.
