Twelve different radio communications systems, any two of which can be operated interference-free while separated by less than 2 MHz, can be employed in U S Air Force's new AN/TSW-7 mobile air traffic control tower, which is designed to be flown into deserted landing strip and made operational in 1 hr; 22 of towers will be produced by Radio Corp; towers will serve as part of 407L tactical air control system which converts any strip into instrumented airport capable of controlling and landing all types of aircraft in any kind of weather; TSW-7 tower is operated by three controllers seated at three console positions in tower, local, data and ground.
