SECTION I

INTRODUCTION

This report describes the progress made during August 1962 on the

development of an L-band oscillator group for the QRC-139A-(T) and

AN/ALT-22(V) jamming system. This work includes the development of two

essential microwave components, an L-band barrage magnetron and an

L-band ferrite load isolator.

The construction and bench testing of QRC-139A-(T) systems and the

construction and qualification testing of three L-band AN/ALT-22(V) systems

are also part of the program authorized by letter contract AF33(604)38334.

SECTION II

AN/ALT-22(V) AND QRC-139A-(T) MODIFICATION TO AN/ALT-6B (L-BAND)

A. EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION.

The equipment being procured under contract AF33(604)38334 consists

of sixty government furnished AN/ALT-6B equipments modified to the QRC-

139A-(T) and AN/ALT-22(V) configurations. Fifty-seven QRC-139A-(T)

equipments complete with L-band QRC-139A-1-(T) oscillator groups are

to be supplied with deliveries starting in August 1962. Three first article

AN/ALT-22(V) equipments complete with L-band oscillator groups are

scheduled to be submitted to first article tests during August and September

1862 and the first article systems delivered to the Air Force by 30 September

1962.

The QRC~139A-(T) equipment supplied on this contract will be identical

to the QRC-139A-(T) equipment delivered on contract AF33(604)36722 with

the exception that the control dials on the control-indicator and magnetron

frequency control units will be designed for L-band and the r-f oscillator

will have an L-band barrage magnetron and load isolator.

B. PROGRAM STATUS.

The status of the QRC-139A equipment modification is summarized in

27 29 BX-1202 Noise Tubes Received

The first article tests which were scheduled to start in August were

delayed because of the barrage magnetron problem. An insufficient number

of satisfactory magnetrons was received in August to start the tests as planned.

First article tests on Samples 1 and 3 will start early in September providing

first article barrage magnetrons are available. Temperature-altitude, explosion

proof, and some vibration tests will be run on Sample 1. A 250-hour life test

and 24-hour stability test will be run on Sample 3. Service condition tests will

be run on Sample 2.

Negotiations are underway with the Air Force to conduct a vibration

survey on one AN/ALT-22 first article system in order to determine how

much vibration the equipment will withstand without failing, and to pinpoint

the areas where failures will occur. Based on the results of this survey,

recommendations can be made regarding ways and means of fixing the equip-

ment so that is will withstand vibration tests conducted in accordance with

MIL-T-5422 (modified). If the Air Force approves the planned survey early

in September, this vibration test will be run on Sample 2. Barry shock mounts

built to Boeing specifications have been received for use in this program. The

AN/ALT-22 power supply and transmitter with the L-band oscillator installed

will be mounted on these shock mounts during part of the vibration survey. The

vibration survey datataking and analysis, and report writingwill require six

weeks.

Parts required for the modification program, with the exception of the

L-3519 barrage magnetron, are being received in large enough quantities to

meet the production schedules. The barrage magnetron remains a problem

area. (See paragraph C. of this section.) The quantities of noise tubes, load

isolators, and barraje magnetrons which have been received are tabulated in l/f

the Remarks colunyrt %)f the table on page 3. The BX-1202 noise tubes are now

being delivered in accordance with the requirements of G-E Drawing No.

7060620, Revision A (see Appendix A) with the exception that the requirements

of notes 9 and 12 of this specification have been waived until such time as the

necessary life test data and shelf life data can be accumulated to determine

that these requirements are realistic. The BX-1202 beam switching tube is

a new noise source. It is being used as a noise generator for the first time

on this contract. For this reason, little is known of its life expectancy or

shelf life characteristics. The Burroughs Corporation has agreed to ac-

cumulate some data so that these tube characteristics can be included as

part of the purchase specification,

c. "PROBLEM AREA.

The barrage magnetron is still the only item limiting the delivery of

L-band QRC-139A-(T) systems to the Air Force. Litton did not deliver as

many tubes as expected during August due to a low yield situation. The low

yield during the first part of the period was caused by slumping and narrow

spectrum bandwidth. To improve the yield, several changes were made inside

the magnetron. To eliminate the slumping problem, the spacing of the pole

pieces from the filament was increased to eliminate possible out-gassing

from the pole pieces due to the heat from the filament. To increase the

spectrum bandwidth, the coupling to the r-f resonant circuit was increased.

These changes were made in the tube design about the middle of the report

period and failures due to slumping and narrow bandwidth were reduced

significantly. However, with the increased coupling, another problem developed

in that the tubes received late in August exhibited a strong tendency to mode

at the high frequency end of the tuning range. Litton has been advised of this

situation and the General Electric Company will work closely with Litton to

resolve this new problem which is reducing the yield from 50 percent to less

than 30 percent.

D. PROGRAM FOR NEXT INTERVAL.

The program for the next interval will consist of conducting first article

tests on the three AN/ALT-22 (L-band) systems and the assembly and test of

at least 27 QRC-139A-(T) systems. The barrage magnetron problem will

have to be resolved early in September if the scheduled September deliveries

are to be accomplished.

E. FINANCIAL STATUS,

The following is an estimate of the monies that have been expended and

committed on Contract AF33(604)38334 as of 31 August 1962:

Expenditures for Engineering Material, Design Effort, Direct Labor, Direct Materials and Support Effort

Gross Commitments and Estimated Liability

$264,361

$257,400

$521,761 Total Expenditures and Commitments

F. OTHER PROJECT ACTIVITY.

Engineering and Material Procurement personnel visited Litton Industries

to convince them to build more tubes per day since the tube yield was lower

than anticipated. As a result of this trip, Litton agreed to increase their tube

starts from three per day to four per day. Additional trips to Litton will be

required until an even flow of L-3519 barrage magnetrons from Litton to

G.E. has been established.
