OPERATIONS ORDER NO 1-54
CICPLOTTER-TELLER INSTRUCTIONS
STATUS CONTROLLER: The Status Controller is the Senior Controller's
assistant and will supervise operational control of the two HF point to
point operators, HF air to sround operator, and the VHF relay operator
to insure that positions one throuth six are proporly aayes on the
aircraft status boards.
He will receiv: positions one (1) and six (6)
from DIRTY FAGE over one of the HF point to point circuits or through
the VHF relay circuit and will tive poeitions two (2) through five (5)
to D'RTY FACE.
Every effort will be mie to keep all circuits open for
operations with the clearest circuit being used to interchange information
between DIRTY FACE and BOUNDARY TARE,
411 communication difficulties will
be reported to the Electronics Officer for Corrective action. The HF air
to ground circuit will be continually monitored and when VHF contact cannot be made with an aircraft the air ground circuit will be used. An
additional selector switch is provided for all circuits for coordination
by the Senior Controller in the CIC.
A status log (Attachment 1) will be kept up to date by the status
controller to insure positions one (1) and six (6) are received from the
AOC and properlydisplayed on the CIC status boards and that positions
two (2) through five (5) are told to the AOC. Positions will be told
between the AOC and CIC by giving call sign, position and time (PEWPER 2,
positions three, one zero two zero). Aircraft in omergency and assistinz
aircraft or ships will take priority over other aircraft plots to insure
accurate positions. The Status Controller will be directly responsible
to the Senior Controller.
TELLERS:
The Tellers will provide their plotter with a position on
each aircraft at.least, each three minutes,
In case an aircraft is in an
emergency, the frequency of plots will be increased to depict a constant
heading and position. The teller will give the plotter call sign for aircraft, bearing and range. (WILSON 1 zero two five at forty). The Teller
and Plotter will use head and chest sets for reporting on a direct circuit.
The Teller for scopes four, five and six will give positions two through
wns to the Sampler Status Clerk and three minutes positions on CASSIDY 1,
WILSON 1, STABLE 1 and 2, FLOYD 1 and 2, ELAINE 7. and 2, and TIGER air-
craft to plotter #2. The Teller for scopes two, three and seven will give
positions two through five to the effects Status Clerk, and three minute
positions on PEWTER 1, 2 and 3, HARDTIF# 1 and VIKING aircraft to Plotter
#1. The tellers will be responsible to sce that the plotted vositions are
maintained on the operation board eac!: three minutcs on all aircraft. He
may read positions direct from controllers scope or obtain call sign, range
and bearing from the scope controllers. His position will be behind and
to the side of the Controller, After H-hour and the scone controllerg release control of assigned aircraft to DIRTY FACE the tellers will be
meuired, one for controllers #4 and 5 and the second for controllers #1: and
y for duration of mission.
HE AND VUF RELAY OPERATIONS: The HF point-to-point monitor-tellers
will make every effort, througn the Electronics Officer, to keep these
circuits operational to the AOC, The primary purpose of these circuits
will be to pass aircraft positions and maintain coordination on operational matters between the CIC and the AOC. The VHF relay will be a back up for
the HF point-to-point circuits and provide an additional means of communications between the AOC and CIC. The HF air-~ground monitor-teller will
