A. BATTERY CHARGING
1. Charge battery as follows:
a. To fully charge battery, it should be placed on constant
charge for 16 hours. The battery will not be damaged if it is left
on charge for more than this length of time.
b. :hen fully charged, the battery can be used for six
transmissions.
c. When two to four transmissions have been made with a
fully charged battery, six hours of constant charge is necessary to
return the battery to fully charged condition.
I. When a fully charged battery has not been used for one
month, it loses some of its cher,e. When in this condition, it
cannot be used for more than two transmissions. Ten hours of con-
stant charge will restore the battery to fully charged condition.
e. Unless the battery has been fully charged within ten Co
fifteen days preceding use, it is recommended that the battery be
given a sixteen hour continuous charge before being used.
2. To charge the battery, connect the battery pack (2) to the
battery charger. (7) (green plugs) and plug charger into the mains
current supply. The mains must supply alternating current at any
voltage between 70 and 240 volts. A small neon bulb in the charger
glows when the charger is plugged into the mains socket. The mains
plug furnished with the charger will fit almost any mains socket.
Examine one of your own plugs to determine the correct pin shape,
pin size and spacing between the pins. The pins (73) of the charger
mains plug may be unscrewed and reversed if necessary to fit dif-
ferent sizes of round pin sockets. If your sockets are of the slit
type, carefully bend back one side only of each of the smaller round
pins until it breaks off. This will give you an approximately flat
pin which will fit into the mains socket slits. The web (72) of the
plug may be cut with a sharp knife if necessary to fit wide-spaced
pin sockets.
3. After charging, disconnect the battery charger from the
mains supply and disconnect the battery pack from the charger.

the entire message has been written in. I,' the cartridge is acci-
dentEdly removed before the message hes been completed, you must
erase the cartridge and rewrite the entire message from the beginning.
6. YOUr messages, coca enciphered, may be of any length up to
115 five-di ,it groups. If a message is longer than 115 groups when
enciphered, it must be broken into two messages.

C. ERASING
1. Erasing removes any previous message which had been
written into the tape cartridge (5). You most always erase the
tape cartridge before you write a message into it with the
writer -(6).
2. To erase a cartridge, follow these steps exactly,
a. If the lid is on the keyer, remove it by lifting
the lid and sliding it sideways, off the hinge.
b. Connect the keyer (4) to the battery pack (2)
(greo plugs).
c. Check the motor button (44) to be sure that it is
in the off position (away from the arrow). Fold out the keyer
crank and wind the keyer until the small gear wheel begins to
revolve.
d. Place the tape cartridge (5) in position on the
keyer so that the yellow stripes coincide.
e. Push the erase button (45) in the direction of the
arrow and, while holding the erase button in this position, push
the motor button (44) in the direction of its arrow and hold it
in this position. The tape is now being erased.
f. When the motor stops, the tape has been completely
erased. Push the motor button (44) in the opposite direction
from the arrow.
g. Remove the tape cartridge by pressing the cartridge
release button (51) and lift the cartridge away from the keyer.
D. ASSEMPLIN) TRE EQUIPMENT
1. Two leather insoles (8) are furnished. If necessary, the
insoles may be trimmed slightly to fit the shoe comfortably.
Place the insoles inside your shoes, with the smooth leather side
up. Push the vire through your sock at the instep and run it up-
ward inside the sock, bringing the end out at the top.
2. The transmitter (1) fits into the smaller compartment of
the carrying pouch (3). The two white and two brown wires should be
threaded through the hole in the bottom of the compartment before
the transmitter is placed in the poueh. (See illustration).

G. REMOVTNG THE EQUIPMENT
1. The equipment may be removed from the body in the reverse
order from which it was assembled. The transmitter may be left in

wires most be carefully disconnected. To do this, slide back the
plastic cover from the connector and bend the connection gently, as
If to break it at that point. The plug should separate easily
from the socket. Do not attempt to separate this connection by
pulling on the wires.
H. SELECTION OF TOANS015Phd SITE
1. Your radio signal will be heard bet if you stand still
with both feet on the ground and face directly toward the receiving
antenna while transmitting.
2. The radio frequency on which you will transmit his Fume of
the characteristics of light; the distance over which it may be trans-
mitted depends upon the type and number of obstructions between your
transmitter and the receiving station.

I. SFCURITY
1. You must avoid any overt personal actions which would
tend to compromise your activity.
a. Do not divulge the existence of your transmitter
and cipher material to anyone.
b. Plan all your activities carefully beforehand end
make sufficient preparation so that you are not interrupted, are
not observed, are not missed, and are not hurried. Be prepared
at all times with a logical sounding explanation of your activities
in case you are unavoidably surprised bye firend or a member of
your family.
c. Choose the hiding places for your material carefully.
Select sufficient places for hiding so that not everything is in
one spot. Group the equipment and materials which are used to-
gether for hiding in the same place.
d. Practice the manipulation and carrying of your equip-
ment enough times before actually using it so that you are confi-
dent you can do it in a manner which will not call attention to
Yon.
2. Aside from your personal security which is most Important
there is the factor of radio security.
a. If possible, you should choose c different site for
each transmission.
S. Do not make transmissions frcm the same site on two
successive occasions.
c. Avoid mmking transmissicns in an area where there are
no other people. Your best protection is to blend in with other
people and their Rctivities.
A. After making a transmission from a spot, move immedia-
tely but in a quiet manner away from the area. For example, If you
make a transmission ln an area where there are taxies or streetcars,
you may leave the area by ,me of those means or by a brisk walk. If
you have driven your car into an area where there Is moderate
traffic and have covered your exit from the car to make a transmission
you should get back into the car and leave the area immediately after
the transmission is completed.

A. If there are no obstructions whatsoever between you and the
If receiving antenna, a maximum transmitting distance of 6 KM may be
achieved.
B. If you transmit from an area containing houses or buildings which
would obstruct the path of the radio waves, you must be within 3/4 KM of
the receiving antenna.

C. If you transmit from an area containing houses or buildings
but are able to position yourself so that the radio waves are not
obstructed by buildings, walls, metal fences, etc., transmission
distances of 4 KM may be obtained.
D. Scattered trees and bushes which might obscure the path between
your transmitter and the receiving antenna will not affect the range of
the signals.
E. Heavy growth of trees such as in a forest will affect the range
of the radio signals and should be avoided or allowances made when cal-
culating the effective range of your transmitter.
