STUDY AND DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIFICATIONS FOR PROTOTYPE TRANSMITTERS AND RECEIVERS FOR FALLOUT SHELTER COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS

Abstract

A study approach to the problem of developing specifications for equipment for a radio backup to a landline fallout shelter communications system is described. Consideration is given those aspects of shelter program which contribute requirements for electrical performance of the equipments. Discussions are included concerning frequency availability and usage, cost analysis, state of the art, and recommendations. The report includes full specifications for three types of radio equipment. A radio backup to a landline communications system was found to be technically feasible. A substantial savings in costs relative to that of presently available commercial radio equipment can be realized.
