UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT SPM-5-144 TO : Chief, Communications Engineering Division DATE: FROM : SUBJECT: Chief, Communications Supplemental Programs DiV-StigNENT NO. NO CHANGE IN CLASS. 0 0 DECLASSIFIED 25X1 udio Oscillator CLASS. CHANGED TO: TS S NEXT REVIEW DATE' AVM: t1R074%2 DATE 4, 19130 REVIEWER: 0...,..t.sxo . This Division has an outstanding requirement for a personal-carried audio oscillator to be used in conjunction with ELINT presence receivers. 25X1 The intent of the oscillator is to enable to approximate the PRF of 25X1 an intercepted radar by matching the frequency of the audio oscillator to that of the radar. This Division has conducted preliminary investigations to deter- mine the desirable characteristics of such an oscillator and has arrived at the following as operational requirements: A. The size should not be in excess of 3 x 2x 1 inches; B. Frequency range: 30 - 3000 CPS; C. Frequency stability: 5% between the limits of 0-C.4.. D. Calibration accuracy: 10% at the low end and 5% at the high end; E. Output wave form: Pulse; F. Connections: (1) presence receiver input ? (2) Miniature headphone output; G. Manual Controls: (1) pushbutton on/off switch (2) frequency control (3) output level (if practical); 2. It is requested that your Division undertake the design and construc- tion of two oscillators conforming to the operational characteristics as des- cribed above. Should your laboratory models prove successful in local field evaluations, it is anticipated that a contract for twenty-five additional oscil- lators will be instigated with your models serving as prototypes. Should your Division desire additional information concerning the intended use or operational characteristics required, reference is made to the ELINT Activities Branch of this Division (2718 Alcott Hall, Distribution: Orig & 1 - OC-E s '2% 25X1 if 42/xv ,/ 25X1 Declassified in Part - Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2012/09/13: CIA-RDP78-03535A000500040032-6
