REMARKS SUMMARY OF INFORMATION
1. On 13 Aug 80, 1960 COMMSq Maintenance Officer reported Radar Approach
Control equipment and scanner radar inoperative due to high frequency
jamming from an unknown cause. Total blackout of entire radar approach
system to include Albuquerque Airport was in effect between 1630-2215 hrs.
Radar Approach Control back up system also were inoperative.
2. On 13 Aug 80, Defense Nuclear Agency Radio Frequency Monitors
determined, by vector analysis, the interference was being sent from an
area (V-90 degrees or due East). On DAF map coordinates E-28.6. The area
was located NW of Coyote Canyon Test area. It was first thought that
Sandia Laboratory, which utilizes the test range was responsible.
However, after a careful check, it was later determined that no tests were
being conducted in the canyon area. Department of Energy, Air Force
Weapons Laboratory and DNA were contacted but assured that their agencies
were not responsible.
3. On 13 Aug 80, Base Security Police conducted a physical check of the
area but because of the mountainous terrain, a thorough check could not be
completed at that time. A later foot search failed to disclose anything
that could have caused the interference.
4. On 13 Aug 80, at 2216 hrs., all radar equipment returned to normal
operation without further incident.
5. CONCLUSION: The presence of hostile intelligence jamming cannot be
ruled out. Although no evidence would suggest this, the method has been
used in the past. Communication maintenance specialists cannot explain
how such interference could cause the radar equipment to become totally
inoperative. Neither could they suggest the type or range of the
interference signal. DNA frequency monitors reporeted the interference
beam was wide spread and a type unknown to their electronical equipment.
Further checks of the area was being conducted by Technical Services,
AFOSI.
6. High command interest item. Briefings requested IAW AFOSIR 124-4 be
completed at HQ AFOSI/IVOE. HQ CR 44 and 51 items.
