Telegraph Terminal Set (AN/FGC-14)

Abstract

The AN/FGC-14, developed at NRL, is an electronic device which, when used with a suitable cipher generator, permits instantaneous on-line enciphering and deciphering of teletype signals. It was primarily designed for use atlarge communication centers in conjunction with the standard single-sideband equipment (SSB) although it is- not limited to such use. Automatic protection devices included in the equipment maintain a continuous check on the adequacy and accuracy of the enciphering process. The traffic handling capability of the SSB equipment is increased from 360 words per minute to 468 words per minute through the use of the AN/FGC-14.
