| |
All radio equipment functioned very satisfactorily during
the patrol. Our one transmission was sent and receipted for promply and
efficiently without any undue trouble from Japanese interference. With the
exception of the mid-day period, when atmospheric conditions interfered,
reception of fox schedules was good throughout the run. |
| |
|
| |
The trip north to the barrier in company with the USS DACE afforded an
opportunity for working with voice equipment with the following results
noted: |
| |
For ship to ship voice communication the VHF was of little value at
range much over 3,000 yards. |
| |
The kingsley receiver was excellent for receiving voice but did not
compare with the standard RAL high frequency receivers in long distant CW
reception. |
