The photo above shows the rather modest Incirlik Receiver site Tech Control patch bays. By 1967 there was only one radio trunk regularly carrying a VFTG tone group,
and the single-channel RTTY trunk saw only intermittant use. Tech Control duty here would become more interesting of a trunk had been set up for contingency use.
In the leftmost patch bay from the top is a variable tone generator; open bay; VU/Db meter; frequency counter.
Photo above shows the Incirlik Receiver Site Antenna farm patch bays used to connect various antennas (rhombic, log periodic, discone) with RF amplifiers that then could be patched to various receivers within the receiver site building. Point-to-point trunks often had two pair of fixed rhombic antennas. One pair provided space diversity reception at or below 10 MHz, the other pair was for above 10MHz.
