Notes on the Modification of the Models YE and YG Homing Beacon Equipments for Increased Security

Abstract

The Homing equipment modification has been developed at the Naval Research Laboratory for the purpose of providing greater security for the Models YE and YG Homing Beacon Equipments. Greater security is obtained through a remote control system which energizes the homing equipment in response to a signal transmitted from an aircraft and which limits homing transmission to a period of slightly over one minute. In this way transmission takes place only at such times as required by aircraft in homing.
