SUBJECT: CRV Stage Three Training (S/CL-1/NOFORN)
(S/CL-1/NOFORN) This report is an amendment to Trip Report 6-22
July 1982, SRI-I which discussed Stages one through Three.
(S/CL-4/NOFORN) From 4-15 April 83, the undersigned was TDY to
SRI-I for the purpose of learning Stage Three CRV techniques.
This was the second two-week period of Stage Three training. It
is anticipated that only one additional trip of two-weeks will
be required to complete Stage Three.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) During this training period, I received lectures
on refined ideograms. These lectures were helpful. The
ideograms being produced are both more accurate and contain
larger quantities of data.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Bilocation problems were also addressed during
these lectures. Bilocation means two locations. This means the
viewer has his perceptions at the site and in the viewing room,
simultaneously. This allows the viewer to perceive information
at the site and to objectify this information and do analysis in
the viewing room. This balance of site and viewing room is very
important.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) If the viewer is too deeply into the signal
from the site, he will not be able to adequately analyze his
data to put it into a usable form. Long periods of silence is
an indicator that the viewer is too deeply into the signal.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) If the viewer is too heavily into the
analytical half of the session, he begins to lose contact with
the site. This is exemplified when the viewer becomes too
conversant with the monitor.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Anytime either of these problems occurs, the
viewer should call a "Bilo Break." This objectifies to his
unconscious that he is having problems and will make correction
of the problems easier.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Increasingly difficult sites were used
throughout this training period. These sites required refined
ideograms and Stage Two signals. These detailed signals allowed

more accurate and detailed Stage Three sketches to be produced.
During the next training period, additionallydifficult sites will
be used which will assist in the production of more detailed
sketches.
(S/CL-4/NOFORN) During this training period a new student was
introduced into the training program. This student is a female
civilian employee (GS-9) of NSA. There were numerous problems
with her selection as a trainee that were overlooked by NSA.
Although these problems primarily affect her ability to be
trained, they also affect Mr. Swann's time and abilities to
train the undersigned. (See trip report, subject: NSA
Participation on CRV Training at SRI-I.)
(S/CL-4/NOFORN) Because of the intensive nature of the Stage
One training of this new student, Mr. Swann's time with the
undersigned is inhibited. Instruction is still professionally
accomplished; however, this tends to make the days longer and
often more tiring.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN) Stage Three training is proceeding well in
spite of the above listed obstacles. I feel I am learning a
great deal and the quality of the products I produce is
continuing to improve.
