The TA-lA Transmitter Adapter is basically a TA-i unit that has been reworked
in an effort to improve the antenna-matching characteristics, the B7'0 circuitry,)
and the mechanical design of the miniature key. In addition, from the stand-
point of reliability and easeof reproduction, it was also necessary to seek
improvement in circuit layout and package arrangement. The prototype TA-lA
has been assembled and tests indicate that additional work will be necessary
to remove two deficiencies; namely, low power in the high band and high
crystal current in the off-resonance condition.

Removal of the deficiencies in the TA-1A as noted above and construction
of six units.
Design and construction of a prototype transmitter adapter similar in size
and characteristics to the TA-lA with the added capability to operate over
the 3-22 inc frequency range.
