     Kommentar till en text av Paul Quinn
Ärende: Mercurial ... for Jimmy.
================================
G'morning Paul,

 PQ> This was at a 'static' (ASA) COMMCEN at the time.  It was top secret
 PQ> stuff in them thar days, during the latter stages of the Vietnam
 PQ> conflict and cold war.

My memory led me astray - I thought your original was about a US 
signals unit, ignoring your Queensland address;  our various 
Commcens would have had virtually identical orgs at that time, 
thanks to our co9mmon HM War Office ancestory....

 PQ> The front desk was just that, a
 PQ> desk.  The view into the internals of the COMMCEN ceased
 PQ> about 3 metres behind the desk but the entire outfit took
 PQ> up two floors of a modern office block building, and the
 PQ> generator room (open during diesel maintenance) was another
 PQ> huge area that probably took up another two floors because
 PQ> of the complicated-looking plumbing (half of which was
 PQ> below ground level).

...despite the scale;  a Sigs Field Squadron shared the same org 
as a COMMZONE or Divisional Sigs Regiment monster.

 MM> and write down the message....   bloody amazing in the light of my
 MM> own crude 15wpm morse and 7 bit memory.

 PQ> Damned right.  You get that with any human endeavor that allows for
 PQ> specialisation, even going right back to the 'stone age';
 PQ> flint chipping ain't as easy as it sounds.  :)

Very true - my Physical Anthro prof had us chipping away until he 
was satisfied we could tell man-made from river accidents...

 PQ> I managed to arrange a tour of the internal workings of the
 PQ> COMMCEN sometime in the period of the late 80s/early 90s
 PQ> (in support of my tech college studies), after their
 PQ> transition to purely digital operations.  Their
 PQ> computerised configuration included two mainframes (though
 PQ> probably only minis) installed within metres of each other,
 PQ> with the second providing a mirroring of the first's
 PQ> digital manipulations.  Fantabulous stuff.

PDP-11's and the like ?  They were stepping stones here...

 PQ> All the time though I had three 'minders' with me, as
 PQ> security was still tight.

Were you asked to sign any SEATO security undertakings ?

Ha...and talking of security,  I'm still chuckling at this 
morning's NZ Herald.  It seems that your photographers got away 
with our All Black battle plans yesterday !!  Just hope they were 
dummy plottings...

 PQ> 'tis nice to 'chew the fat', Miles.

Thanks again for the welcome bit of nostalgia ..

Cheers

Miles
