The OF site will declared a restricted area by the unit commander and posted with appropriaté nonmetallic signs. Signs will not exceed a height of 3 feet, be\printed in black letters on a white background, be multilingual, when required, and be ‘positioned facing around all quadrants of the OF site, spaced approximately every 100 feet along the perimeter. a. The OF antenna array will be positioned in the area of prime interest as far from other site equipment, such as vehicles, generators, and petroleum, oils and lubricants (POL), etc., as the site real estate wil] allow. b. The operations shelter will be located fn the center of the OF antenna array, or when provided with a remote capability, it wilt be placed in the quadrant of least interest as far from the antenna array as real estate c. No structure or other equipment will be located closer than 300 feet from the nearest OF antenna and in line opposite the arc of prime interest. All incoming power cables will be buried to a depth of at least one foot (three feet inside or within 50 feet of the antenna array), entering the ground at least 500 feet from the site area. Buried, non-metallic cable signs, will be posted every 200-500 feet and indicate direction of the buried cable. 08
UNCLASSIFIED USA INSCOM Reg 105-11 *" d. Perimeter lights should be flaced within the DF antenna array at each corner of the DF or remote shelter, facing outward. Lights should not exceed five feet in height and will be located within five feet of the OF or remote shelter. Lights installed in the vicinity of equipment located outside of the antenna array will not be placed within 300 feet of the nearest DF antenna. Their overall height should not exceed three degrees vertically from the center pin of the antenna array. Electrical wiring will be kept to an absolute minimum on site and all wiring will be buried to a depth of one foot. : e. Associated DF equipment located outside the DF antenna array, such as vehicles, generators, supply shelters, POL, and communications bunkers, should be arranged so as to Ife along a center line opposite the arc of prime interest. Vehicle parking should be kept as far away from the OF antenna array as possible and at least 350 feet. . 17. (U) RESTRICTIONS. The restrictions outlined herein pertain to objects placed in and around the DF antenna array, but are not limited to the Gllowing: a. Nothing will be placed in front of the OF antenna array (the area of primary interest) for a distance of 900 feet. 6. Ammunition and destruction materials will be stored in bunker areas at least 300 feet from the OF antennas; owever, in sensitive areas this distance may be altered at the discretic \of the ELI technician. f c. Transmitting and receiving antennas will be erected not closer than 300 feet to the DF antenna array in the quadrant of least interest. d. RF cable slack will be cofled neatly and placed on top of the antenna baseplates. e. For security purposes only, a small metal trash burner may be located within the antenna array, but it will be located as close to the geometric center of the OF antenna array as physically and safely possible. f. All DF sites may not be able to adhere completely to the above criteria because of environmental, climatic or political conditions; there- fore, exceptions may have to be made. All exceptions will be considered Separately by the NCS, or, when appropriate, at a higher level. Prior approval will always be necessary in each instance. Section VI a SITE ACCURACY PROGRAM ae ¢. 18. (U) GENERAL. An aggressive site accuracy program fs essential to the efficient operation of any OF site. It is also essential that the equipment be accurately aligned and in proper working order. To accomplish this the OF site supervisor will - 7 UNCLASSIFIED 09
UNCLASSIFIED 4 a. Insure all OF equt pment is checked dafly in accordance with applicable technical publications. Any equipment failing to pass service- ability criteria will be reported immediately to maintenance for repair or replacement. b. Make daily system alignment checks. c. Require perfodic Check Bearing Observations throughout the 24-hour operations day. 19. (U) SYSTEM ALIGNMENT CHECKS. a. A predetermined target transmitter location will be established. The exact location will be marked by a painted stake or a small wooden platform so the target transmitter can be positioned fn the same exact location every day. The location must be a known azimuth (not necessarily True North); and if at all possible, it should be 600 feet from the antenna array, or at least a minimum distance of 300 feet. b. The system alignment check will be performed at the same time each day, pre preferably at the start of the day shift. The following steps will be ollowed (1) Find a clear frequency between two and four MCS and tune the T-279/UR Target Transmitter to the frequency. (2) Place the target transmitter in front of the predetermined calibration point in line with the known azimuth making sure the T-279 antenna is fully extended and no one is within 20 feet of the transmitter to preclude error caused by reradiation. ©. % (3) Observe the bearing on the azimuth “indicator positions to see if an accurate bearing is recorded. (NOTE: A small dot should be painted on the alidade assemblies at the correct azimuth to be used for comparing the bearing taken during daily system alignment check.) (4) If the bearing displayed differs from the known azimuth of the target transmitter, the system must be aligned to the correct azimuth. (Alignment procedures will vary according to the OF system in use.) (5) After the system alignment check has been completed, the target transmitter will be turned off and returned to storage. The transmitter will not Sean at the calibration point after the alignment checks have been complete -20. (U) CHECK BEARING OBSERVATION. When the OF site supervisor is satisfied that all OF equipment is aligned and working properly, check bearings will be obtained from each OF position. Only check targets of known locations, authorized by the NCS or higher authority for the specific purpose of obtaining bearings for accuracy studies, will be used. The site supervisor must impress upon the OF operator the importance of recording accurately the — UNCLASSIFIED
USA INSCOM Reg 105-11 + D , bearings they observe and not bette influenced by the known bearing. Check bearings should be taken and recorded throughout each 24-hour operational day as a continuing check on system alignment and noticeable changes in atmospheric conditions. Continuing errors in known check bearing targets may require an additional DF equipment alignment. wets Section VII - MAINTENANCE 21. (U) GENERAL. Outdoor maintenance requirements will differ with climatic conditions; however, regardiess of conditions, maintenance is a continual and essential function of DF operations and its sustained accuracy. The DF site supervisor must conduct a vigorous maintenance program to insure optimum equipment operation at all times and in all weather conditions. 22. (U) PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE. Daily, weekly, and monthly PM must be ‘carried out in accordance with local maintenance policy as prescribed by comnand directives and current regulations. , a. DA Form 2404 (Equipment Inspection and Maintenance Worksheet) will be used for recording daily inspections and services, periodic preventive services, and inspection of equipment by maintenance. When used by mainten- ance personnel for recording periodic ag services, al] deficiencies found to exist at the time of inspection willbe recorded. When used by the equip- ment operator during operational inspections and services, only those deficiencies that cannot be corrected by the operator wil} be recorded. DA Form 2404 used for recording the operator's. daily inspection will be furnished the maintenance supervisor for any other action. b. Close supervision will be given to al] phases of PM. Special attention should be given to the folicwing details: (1) Cleanliness not only enhantes the appearance of the DF site, but more importantly, it is essential in preventing dirt and grime from getting into equipment, causing undue wear and tear and eventual equipment breakdown. The floor of the operation shelter should be damp-mopped as frequently as necessary to keep it dirt and dust free. The tops of the electrical cabinets will be dusted and kept clear of ali materials so that excess heat generated by the equipment will pass through the ventilating holes as it was designed to do and interior components remain clean. (2) Overheating fs the frequent cause of breakdown. To help prevent these breakdowns, observe the following: ae (a) Electrical equipment inside the cabinets will be inspected daily and vacuumed regularly. ae (b) Keep all filter screens free of dirt and dust by frequeat cleaning. The screens will be checked as part of the daily PM check list and cleaned as required. 9 UNCL&ASSILET2D Mv: yg Vw Pa} Ff ; 11 | |

These forms will be reviewed by unit and theater ELI supervisory personnel during their quarterly visits. The review will take into account any constant problem areas, and determine if corrective actions can be taken, e.g., submission of MWO and/or EIR if applicable. The maintenance log will also denote discrepancies and correc- tive action entries when applicable. (d) OD Forms 314 (Preventive Maintenance Schedules and Record) and informal demand and usage data for Prescribed Load List (PLL) and Missfon Essential List (MEL) will be reviewed on a regular basis by the OF site supervisor to insure all scheduled maintenance is being performed and that repair parts are reordered to maintain proper parts stockage levels. The informal demand and usage data should show that the prescribed amounts of each part are on hand or on requisition. The official PLL/MEL and Record of Demand Cards will be kept by the parent wnit in accordance with INSCOM Regulation 700-8. 23. (U) ANTENNA MAINTENANCE. ‘Antenna maintenance is performed on a continual basis governed by local climatic conditions. The following checks are considered as minimum daily requirements: a. Visually inspect the antenna monopoles for vertical alignment. 4 b. Check guy lines for proper tension and/or wear. 4 c. Check ground straps, ‘terminating resistors and RF cable connections for tightness and cleanliness. (Also check for rust, dirt, and corrosion on _ . basepiates, ground strap, and resistor connections. ) d. Check counterpoise for breaks and proper grounding. e. Intra-cable connections should be weather-proofed by covering the connectors with rubber insulator tape at the junctions of the cables. f. At least two antennas should be dismantled and cleaned each week. A rotating system should be used, f.e., first week clean antenna 13 and 13, then 2 and 14, etc., until? antenna 25 and the monitor have been cleaned and the Process begins again. then painting is required, be sure only nonmetalic paint is used. 24. (U) VEHICLE AND GENERATOR OPERATION. Vehicle and generator operation is dependent upon good maintenance. The OF site supervisor will supervise daily operator PM on all vehicles and generators and insure that all faults are recorded on DA Form 2404 or DA Form 2400 (Equipment Utilization Record). All inspections, services, repairs, and modifications will be entered in appropriate logbook forms in accordance with TM 38-750 by the unit providing those maintenance actions. DA Form 2401 (Organization Control Record for Equipment) will be utilized to reflect ail vehicle and generator usage and CA Form 2400 or the equipment logbook will be used to operationally dispatch vehicles and generators. The use of the equipment logbook in lieu of the — OA Form 2460 will be dependent upon local command policy. OA Form 2408-1 (Equipment Daily Log) will be utilized to record data in accordance with 10
. USA INSCOM Reg 105-11 C3) — UNC % % _ uo T™ 38-750. This log will be closed out monthly and forwarded to the unit having the equipment logbook and providing support in order to update the equipment monthly log. - a. The site supervisor is responsible to insure that all scheduled maintenances are performed and antries made on all appropriate forms. b. Vehicles kept on site which are not operated regularly should be blocked up and run in place (in gear) at least twice a week to insure that working parts are kept lubricated and are operating properly. Cc. An Equipment Serviceability Criteria (ESC) check is performed (usually quarterly) to determine the status of vehicles of a unit at a given time. The site supervisor should be familiar with the format for determining the readiness of his vehicles. d. When generators are used only for back-up or emergency power, the site supervisor should insure the generators are in good operating condition at ali times. To insure this, he should see that they are operated at least two hours a week (under a load condition). 25. (U) TOGLS AND EQUIPMENT. Tools and equipment must be used to keep a OF site at operating efficiency. The site supervisor must insure that this equipment is properly cleaned and stored before and after use. \ \ a. OVM kits will be clean and complete, and guarded against weather and pilferage. An inventory of ali maintenance and test equipment will be | conducted at least once each quarter and checked for out-of-date calibration requirements. b. Shovels, pick-mattox and other working tools should be inspected | regularly for dirt and rust. Frequent spot painting is usually required. | 26. (U) SUMMARY. It {s apparent that a proper maintenance program is an exacting and time consuming job. Its importance cannot be overemphasized and the rewards will be reflected in trouble free and effictent operation of the DF site and its equipment. Section VITI SECURITY 27. (U) GENERAL. All facets of OF operations are of the utmost importance; however, no function can be said to be more important than security. A breach in security not only endangers the physical security of the DF site, but endangers the OF mission and damages the security of the Naticn. A more than common knowledge of current security directives and regulations is strongly encourased particularly in regards to the local situation. N | UNCLASSIFIED |
UNCLASSIFIED 4g. (U) CRYPTO MATERIAL™ ‘a. ARI crypto areas are designated restricted areas. Entrance into a crypto area {is usually given only to those persons whose presence is necessary to carry out the functions of that particular facility. The necessary security clearances do not entitle a person access to a crypto area, regardless of rank and position, unless he has a specific need-to-know. . . (1) Persons with proper clearance who desire access to a crypto area must first have a clearance certification sent from the parent unit. Absolutely no access will be authorized until such certification has been received. \(2) A Crypto Area Visitor Register (DA Form 1999) will be kept for all visitors to the site denoting name, rank, SSAN, position, purpose of visit, signature, time in and time out. Each entry will be initialed by the site supervisor at the concluston of each visit. b. Close contro! of crypto material will be kept at all times. A crypto material checklist will be kept listing all crypto material. An inventory will be performed and the OA Form 2653 (COMSEC Account - Daily. Shift Inventory) will be signed by the senior operator of the on-coming trick prior to relieving the trick on duty. Any discrepancies which arise will be brought to the immediate attention of the DF site supervisor (regard- less of hour) for appropriate action. -In addition to the inventories made by each on-coming trick, the site supervisor will also make a physical crypto material check, a minimum of once a week to insure records are being properly maintained and the security containers locking device is in proper working order. Controlled document registers and document destruction certificates will be kept to show the proper disposition of classified documents at all times. The site supervisor must become familiar with al? logging, handling, and collateral classified documents/materials. 29. (U) SAFES AND CONTAINERS. OA Form 727 (Classified Container Informa- tion) will be affixed to the front of each container showing name, rank, address, and telephone number of all persons having access to the container combination. Combinations will be changed at least annually or immediately following the departure of anyone having had access to the container combina- tion. OA Form 672 (Safe or Cabinet Security Record) will be affixed to the side or top of each container. Entries will be made each time the container is opened or closed to show time opened, time closed, and time checked. Each time entry will be initialed by the person initiating the action. a. Containers left open on a 24-hour a day basis will be locked and opened at least once every two weeks to insure the locking devices are in proper working order. Appropriate entries will be made on DA Ferm 672. b. A reversible “OPEN, CLOSED" sign will be placed on the front of each container as an additional security reminder. me, £ 7. 12 UNCL:.SSIFIED 14

(U) PHYSICAL SECURITY. Physical security will be governed by the tactical conditions of the area. It may require sandbagged emplacements and manned bunkers, perimeter fencing, trip flares, etc., or restricted area signs and perimeter lighting may be all that {fs required. Whatever the case, the site supervisor must insure that local security is adequate. In so doing he must also insure that technical operating efficiency is main- tained. All site personnel must be completely familiar with site security plans and alert procedures in effect. (See DIA Manual 50-3.) 31.! (U) WEAPONS AND AMMUNITION. If individual weapons need not be carried to and from work by site personnel, they should be kept in a secure area and stored in accordance with existing regulations. Weapcns should be Stored in a dry,.dust-free area and cleaned as often as climatic conditions dictate, but at least once weekly. Ammunition and destruction materials will also be stored in accordance with appropriate regulations. An ammuni- tion bunker should be constructed at the OF site for storage. 32. (U) ELI LIBRARY. a. The ELI library maintained at the DF site should contain all necessary security information to keep site personnel properly informed. This should include but not be limited to - \ (1) Dod Directive 5200.1, AR 380-5,\.AR 380-40, and AR 380-41. (2) USA INSCOM Supplement to AR 380-5. (3) BEP, ho %, (4) Physical Security Plan. (5) DIA Manual 50-3, Physical Security Standards for Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities. (6) Required training files. b. the site supervisor will insure that semi-annual and annual security readings are being accomplished and that the appropriate records are up- dated after each reading. Records will be maintained on the IA Form 1020-R and IA Form 1021-R in accordance with USA INSCOM Supplement to AR 380-5. 33. (U) SUMMARY. It fs said that the speed of the DF net is the speed of its slowest operator. Then it must also be said that a DF site is as secure as its least informed individual. Make “Security Awareness" a daily house- hold word. 2 13 UNC... SOIFIED
i | > ae Section IX » ‘ ~ a TRAINING © 34. (U) GENERAL. As long as an individual is a member of a military organization he will receive training. It fs necessary for each individual to receive training so that he can maintain proficiency in his MOS and be kept abreast of the ever changing methods and techniques of operation; therefore, it is essential that an effective training program be carried out that will benefit everyone. This should be a continuing and on-going program. —— . co 35. (U) OF TRAINING. The S3, as trainer, must insure that lesson plans on OF subjects are prepared in accordance with the format contained in Appendix G, FM 21-6, for each monthly training subject. The OF site super- visor, as instructor, may participate in the preparation of lesson plans and informal training notes supporting those plans. He must also insure that lesson plans for all subjects pertaining to his detachment, and required for the month, are available to him to conduct the training. He should also insure that his site is on the distribution list for command information periodicals, fact sheets, and other informational type matter. With the materials at hand, plus some local improvisions, a satisfactory training program will be conducted by the site supervisor. The site super- visor should set up a training schedule that will convenience ail site personnel without infringing upon operational commitments. At the end of each month a training report will be sent to the company training NCO so that the training credits can be enteréd on the individual's training record. A separate record should be kept at the site for the site supervisor's file. 36. (U) SPECIAL TRAINING. ‘A special MOS training program should be con- ducted by the site supervisor each month to insure that each member of his site is proficient in all functions of OF operations. Training programs and lesson plans should be arranged to cover such functions as follows: a. Antenna maintenance and monopole alignment procedures. b. Generator operation and maintenance and procedures for conversion from commercial power to emergency power, if applicable. c. Vehicle maintenance and ESC procedures. de Pp Purpose and use of M-3 Document Destroyer Kit, and other on site vices. e. Review of a INSCOM regulations,: security manuals and other ELI-related matters. oo, f. Any other type training that might be useful in furthering the proficiency of OF site operations ({.e., coordination procedures for regaining down communications iines, preliminary trouble shooting methods for equipment). 16
> USA INSCOM Reg 105-11 % . q . 37. (U) ON-THE-JOB TRAINING. Before a newly asstoned OF Operator can be placed on a full-time job he must first go through a period of OUT. A constructive program will be developed to cover all functions of DF opera- tions, such as flash and reporting procedures, equipment operation, mainte- mance procedures for all site equipment, security regulations, alert pro- cedures, SOP and sfte routine. The site supervisor will monitor the administration of ali phases of the OJT program. When the training period has been completed, a written test should be given to determine if the new operator is ready to assume the full duties of a OF operator. A full record of this training will be maintained with the individual's on-site training records with copies of these records forwarded to the parent unit S-3 for filing. Periodic retesting should be given to all DF Operators to assure that top proficiency is maintained. Section X SAFETY 38. (U) GENERAL. There must be safety regulations published and posted to cover all functions of a OF site, not only operational and military functions, but social and off-duty functions as well. These regulations must not only be published and posted but they must also be strictly adhered to. It is the responsibility of the site supervisor to insure that a safety and occupational health program is instituted and carried out in accordance with this regulation and USA INSCOM Regulation 385-2, at the site. os s bg. . $ 39. (U) PETROLEUM, OILS, AND LUBRICANTS STORAGE. The POL dump at the site will be constructed in the area of least interest and as far from any other structure or piece of equipment as real estate will allow. The Storage area will be dry, well ventilated, and covered for protection from the weather. An earth revetment will be built around it to prevent a runoff in case of fire. POL should not be kept in excess of the amount needed for normal operations. In cases where Quartermaster facilities are available, only enough POL should be stored to meet basic load requirements. 40. (U) FIRE REGULATIONS. A sufficient number of fire extinguishers will be kept at the DOF site to cope with fire outbreak. At least one extinguisher will be placed in each structure and on each vehicle, generator, etc. Fire extinguishers will also be placed in the billet area and "NO SMOKING IN BED" signs will be placed conspicuously in each room. A schedule will be established for the hydrostatic testing of extinguishers. Most pressurized extinguishers require this test at five year intervals. a. Fire extinguishers will be checked monthly to insure that they are in good repair and that the seal is unbroken. They will be weighed to check for fullness every six months. A ticket will be attached to each extinguisher showing date checked and initials of inspector. Insure also that the proper type extinguishers are on hand, i.e., CO“ for petroleum fires, chemical for electrical fires, etc. 1§ ee Sir 2

Fire regulationSwill be;posted in an obvious place inside all structures and shelters explaining fire warning devices, telephone numbers of local fire departments and emergency fire exit plans. c. At least one emergency exit must be provided for the billet area. Exits should be remote from each other and so arranged as to minimize any possibility that both may be blocked by any one fire or other emergency condition. When devising alternative exits, particular attention should be paid to the number of building occupants, the fire resistance of the exit components, and suitability of the exit for use by intended personnel. Exits must be clearly marked with the word “EXIT” in letters six inches nigh by 3/4 of an inch wide. : qd. A Fire Marshal and Assistant Fire Marshal will be designated from among the site personnel to keep the fire prevention and safety program current and should be monitored regularly by the site supervisor. 41. (U) SAFETY OF OPERATIONS. - Criteria will be established for the safe operation of all equipment on ‘the DF site. Frequent inspections will be conducted by the site supervisor and maintenance supervisor te locate any loose connections, worn or frayed cables or loose or improper grounds on equipment. The site supervisor should be alert for the detection of unsafe practices by site personnel. “DANGER“ signs will be placed con- spicuously on or near equipment where high voltage is present and protective shielding will be provided. Danger signs will be bilingual, when appropriate. Maintenance personnel should be issued 3/4 steel-toed safety shoes and these will be worn whenever on duty. Safety goggles, hearing protective devices, and other types of personal protective equipment will be worn as appropriate. (See DA Pamphlet 385-3, Protective Clothing and Equipment.) x, 42. (U) VEHICLE OPERATION. Many man-hours are lost and property damage incurred due to unsafe vehicle operation; therefore, it is apparent that a program to promote safe driving habits and vehicle safety is essential not only for the protection of site personnel and equipment but for the uninterrupted operation of the OF site as well. 43. (U) SUMMARY. The OF site supervisor should see that his local SOP reflects a safety program applicable to all phases of DF site operation. Both on and off duty, the key word in any safety program {fs “common sense". 16

The site must be substantially flat in all directions outwards from the antenna field for at least one wave length at the lowest operating frequency, and have no more than a gentle slope for several times that distance. Abrupt terrain irregularities must be avoided, such as excavations, cliffs, ravines, cuts, and fills. Hills and mountains shoul not exceed three degrees vertical elevation from the site. B-2. Type of soil and cover are indicative of ground conductivity. Pastoral or forested land with uniform vcgetation, loam or clay soils are usually satisfactory. Dry sandy soil and rock outcroppings are generally unsatis- factory. B~3. Since shoreline refractive error is an important consideration for radio OF installations, the Terms of Reference will indicate required distances between DF antennas and¢ large bodies of water. B-4. Site and surroundings must be reasonably free of buildings, tall trees, wire fences, radio antennas, ratiroad tracks, everhead conductors, ' Chimney stacks, towers, or other objects capable of re-radiating OF energy. No object should appear above an elevation of three degrees. Minimum Dis- tance acceptable between DF antennas and obstructions are as follows, but other distances may be specified as appropriate: a.
