Call from Mr. McKeown at AMS in Warick, R.I. They have had trouble in making the conversion from UTM to Lat-Long. I don’t have the origins. He spoke of support from Washington.
Told JLV I would delay going to the hospital unti I had done something about the comparison of pre- and in-flight data with the data we brought back from Patrick AFB.
Mailed a letter to M. N. Bradford of Liberty Mutual re: the $15 compensation to the Ellicott City Fire Department ofr ambulance service on 04 May 1961. Also mailed a copy to INA at Baltimore.
Turned in my Activity Report for December, including the proposal I made on 13 December in my trip report for a systems checkout or Operations & Training procedure. Site 12 had only 12 chances to lock on in the period July ’60 to June ’61; @ 3 min. each, this isn’t enough to learn how to operate the gear.
