Shortly after arrival in the operating area, tie OquipMOnt
(SCR-608)tobe employed in the Technical Netmre

tested. It was

found necessaryto relocate and install additional equipments in
order to nwet new requirements. In the process of testing, cmsiderable interferencebetween channels and with other equipments
was encountered. It was also observed that at certain tties transmissims from the continentalU. S. interfered. When numerous adjustments of frequenciesfailed to eliminate the interferenceproblem, it was found neoessary to revise the en~ire frequencv selecticm for the TechnicalNet and to reduce the original 10-channel
system tc a 4-channel system.
The RadiologicalNet required for the operation involved the
use of a type of H? voice equipment already installed an the major
ships. The radiologicalsu-y

landing craft and anLOM drone tsnk

control craft required HF voice equipments (TCS)which were Installed
at Eniwetok by personnel of the BAIROKO, CURTISS and ALBEMARLE. All
cf these equipmentswere orystal controlled. The installation and
operation of these equipments presented no major problems. One
channel of the RadiologicalMet was to be emplo~d as an evacuation
circuit for short perioti prior b X, Y, and Z &ys.
