DR. JAMES W. FORD (Cornell Aeronautic Laboratory, Inc.): The 

 Radiomarine Sextant was mentioned. Will someone identify the 

 instrument by AN/Systemi number and say at what microwave fre- 

 quency it operates? 



ADMIRAL D. McG. MORRISON (USCG): The Radiomarine Sextant 

 recently evaluated by the U. S. Navy is designated as an AN/SRN-4. 

 It was used to investigate solar radiation and lunar radiation in the 

 8.7 mm. and 1.9 cm. region. 



MR. L. S. CHURCHILL (Lockheed Electronics Company): What 

 periodicals publish articles on ocean instruments? What other 

 publications are available? 



MR. J. M. SNODGRASS (SIO): Well, there is the Journal of 

 Marine Research, which is just getting a new lease on life, and is 

 publishing a section, I believe, on oceanographic tools. There are 

 some trade publications being passed out here that carry a few 

 papers. Underwater Technology , I believe, is the title of one. 

 Then, there is the new series beginning in the August issue of the 

 Journal of the Instrument Society of America which would be a 

 whole series on oceanography and marine instrumentation. I 

 think one has to look a bit through the literature to find these. 

 There are also some in the publications of the American Geophy- 

 sical Union. I think that about covers it at the moment. 



MR. ANGELO J. CAMPANELLA (HRB-Singer, Inc.): Correct me 

 if I am wrong: '62 budget for oceanography is about $92 million. 

 About half is for research vessels. About 40 percent or more is 

 for research institutes. The remaining 10 percent, about $10 

 million, goes for hardware. Perhaps 500 companies are repre- 

 sented here. That comes out to $20,000 apiece. How much do 

 you expect them to invest in research -- 



(Laughter Applause) 



-- to justify this gross business for one year? We have spent more 

 than that already with no return. Do you expect Industry to continue 

 to invest in this sort of market? 



THE CHAIRMAN: I am sure a number of you, as indicated by the 

 canvass of members given, are interested in this matter, but I 

 do not think that the answer is difficult. We have only begun to 

 consider the development and procurement of these instruments.
