[R-390] R-390 Digest, Vol 70, Issue 28

[sdaitch at kuw.ibb.gov]

There are plenty of photos of the Phu Lam 
radio site in Vietnam, to include the TTY
equipment in the Autodin facility, and
even photos taken in the HF transmitter site.

I just never found any photos of the HF
receiver site. 

Two places to look at:

http://phulam.com/stories.htm

I made several trips to the Phu Lam site in 1969 and
1970, but I think mostly to the microwave and tropo
radio operations and the technical control facilities.

The HF side of Phu Lum wasn't in our area of general
responsibilities, so I don't think I paid a lot of 
attention to that side.  Really wish that I had.
