I .0 ce Memorandum U ITED STATES GOVERNMENT , TO Chief, Research and Development Branch, OC-E poking: 5 June 1956 FROM : SUBJECT: Modification of RS-13 Transmitters 1. Existing operational requirements have indicated that it is desired to modify certain of the present frequency-shift RS-13 transmitters to conform to the manner in which the experimental unit was modified by the Consequently, was requested to submit a proposal to accomplish this work on certain of these units. 2. The proposal indicates that the unit cost is 8783.00. This cost is considered excessive; therefore, the writer undertook to determine the minimum number of sets required to meet operational needs. Based on a dispatch to the field, dated 10 May 1956, and upon discussions with Support Branch, 0C-O&T, the latest information indicates that only one unit is required. However, further discussions with Support Branch on 4 June indicate that it would be desirable to have two such units modified. Consequently, this has been discussed with at the Laboratory, who has agreed that the perfor- mance of this work will not seriously interfer with any other Lab- 'oratory obligations. 4. It is therefore suggested that a Laboratory Work Order be issued to cover the effort necessary and to establish a deadline of 15 July for the first unit. This unit may then be air-shipped to the EUCA area to fulfill a requirement whose deadline is 1 August. coo ncv GATE ORM COMP ?33_ at _5_4E?
