SUBJECT: Inspection Report No. 5 - RS-101
1. Project Description:
The RS-101 is a 2 - 24 Mc/s solid-state radio intended for
paramilitary operations. The semiautomatically tuned transmitter
produces 20 watts in the CW mode and 5 watts in the AM mode. The
receiver is capable of receiving AM, CW, or SSB signals. There
are provisions for a battery and either a synthesizer (OS/B-100)
or crystal matrix. The RS-101 weighs 10 pounds and is approximately
7 1/411 x 12" x 4 1/2".

7. Project Status:
The four service test model RS-101's are being fabricated.. All
PC boards for the receivers were complete and assembly of one receiver
also was complete. Mechanical piece parts are in various stages of
fabrication. The cast cases and front panels are being machined.
25X1A5a1l 1e front panel cover was changed from a fiberglas material to one
ted of aluminum. Allllllllllllllllll has also selected and will use the
25X1A5a 1~~ transistors as the final amplifier transistors in the RT-101.
An engineering model OS/B-100 synthesizer was tried with the RT-101.
The results were approximately equivalent to performance of the RT-101
when used with the OS-100. Also, a series of tests were run with the
RT-66P2 transmitter (equivalent to the RT-101 except in form/packaging
layout) reducing the input voltage down in various increments from 12 V
to about 9.5 V. The output power of the transmitter decreased to about
15 watts at 9.5 V.
25X1A5a1 _ does not foresee any schedule slippage regarding delivery of
the four service test units during mid-November 1966.
