(3) The 15-J1C was operational during the entire month.
(4) Three hours of ECM Training was conducted by 1st Lt., Lacy, Operations Officer during the month.
(5) Two 27370’s from the 926th AC&W Squadron were gained by this unit.
(6) Several Dirty Dan Missions were conducted against this station during the month of August. Inoperative equipment and an overall low degree of effectiveness on the part of Dirty Dan hindered extensive ECM training of unit personnel.
(1) Radar Maintenance.
(a) From the period 4 august 1956 to 22 August 1956, the Marconi Paint Team checked and painted the Radomes.
(b) On 14 August 1956 the Marconi Radar Overhaul Team arrived. On 28 August 1956, their work completed, the Radar Team departed.
(c) Red Time was encountered this month on the FPS 502 back up search net. The trouble was due to a shorted coupling capacitor C-4301 in the Trigger Amplifier Chassis.
(d) With the loss of two men to the ZI and one man on leave, maintenance personnel have been at a minimum. However, the arrival of five new men has strengthened the section considerably.
