Outside Wire and Antenna Maintenance and Repair Career Ladder. AFSCs 36130, 36150, 36170, and 36199.

Abstract

The results of this survey were compared to those of Occupational Survey Report (OSR) AFPT 90-361-035 dated September 1974. Although the number of groups reported in these two studies varied somewhat (six clusters in the 1978 study versus 13 in the 1974 study), the major job groups discussed in this report are very similar to those reported earlier. Job group titles have been changed from out-side wire to cable in order to better reflect changes in career ladder emphasis. Both studies found several groups of cable and antenna technicians which comprised the majority of the sample. Both studies found cable and antenna team chiefs and supervisory personnel in essentially the same proportion. The previous study did not isolate training personnel and technical advisors as a separate group; however, this loosely associated group comprises only one percent of the current study. It is apparent in reviewing the results from both surveys that the survey data has remained fairly stable over the years. With this stability in the data and as long as no major changes to the career ladder are imposed as a result of acquiring new equipment or restructuring with other related career ladders, a resurvey of this ladder should not be required for another five to seven years.
