                          1. After our conversation onotlA subject on 30 December,
                    the question s discussed with Mr,. nay Alpernj)TSD/AOB, and
                    Mr. Lee Poole, TSD/QRF.  The following information if forwarded
                    for j~ur consideration as a result of our discussions.
                                    03                                      t-
                          2. Mr.   pern) Audio Operations Branchl-recommends two
                   companies.as sources of equipment of this nature. These companies
                   have experience, under classified contracts with TSD, in producing
                   reliable equipment for special purposes of this sort. They also,
                   of course turn out commercial equipment of good quality for normal
                   communications needs. These comanies  are:

                               a   otorola, Chicago, Illinois )
                               b  Kell, Cambridge, Massachusetta)   ,A q .

                   The TSD VHF  radio switbh eq   nt for demolition needs was
                   developed for us by(Metorola. |        ransistorized sets have
                   been produced to me t the special needs (x6t for demolition purposes)
                   of other SAS projects.

                         3.  In the opinion of both persons consulted, the expenses noted
                   in our first discussion should have produced a reasonable amount of
                   workable equipment if the source was both capable and reliable.
                   TSD'recommend'  the use of frequencies in the VHF/UHF spectrum for
                   equipment of this sort and crystal tuning control for reasons of relialilty,
                   selectivity and rejection of spurious signals.

                   .     4. Inexpensive equipment of Japanese or American manufacture
                   in the citizen% band frequency ranges for toys, radio ontroi device., -
