Mike,

Thanks for all the info!

It was published in January 2007 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the introduction of the KWM-1. This excerpt deals with the KWM-1's use in U-2s assigned to the U.S. Air Force's Strategic Air Command -- and it includes a description of how the KWM-1 was mounted and operated in the SAC U-2 aircraft. I hope it answers some of the great questions posed by this thread...Mike K0MYW
