6. Contractor's Performance:
a., On schedule and expected to remain so: Yes
b. Within obligated funds and expected to remain so:
c. Satisfactory technical progress: Yes
7. Project Status:
The PM-18 was delivered on schedule and-meets all specifications
except for operation with a frequency synthesizer. The correction
for this problem is simple, a small adjustment in input impedance
and output level is all that is necessary. -However, there is some
question as to what these specifications should be. Our new
synthesizers have different output "specs" and the transmitters
have still different input "specs". This problem is being
actively pursued and should be resolved within a few days.
Before proceeding with Phase II of this program there will
be another increase in scope for Phase I. This increase is due
to field testing beyond that originally anticipated, correction
of RFI problems, and the writing of a final engineering report.
Also any changes to the synthesizer input and output "specs"
will cost more. I estimate that an additional $2,500.00 will
be added to Phase I.
