Abstract: An apparatus for installation of a material having discrete elements. The apparatus includes a supply material having discrete elements and a transporter system downstream of the supply material having discrete elements. In the preferred embodiment, the transporter system includes: (i) a high speed, inline blower (ii) a material agitator upstream of the inline blower and (iii) a planetary transmission connected to the shaft of the blower for providing a lower speed mechanical output to the material agitator. The material agitator may include a plurality of concentric arms with serrations on the upper surface of each arm. In the preferred embodiment, the apparatus further includes an applicator assembly connected downstream to the transporter system.

Abstract: An apparatus for installation of a material having discrete elements. The apparatus includes: (a) a supply material having discrete elements; and (b) a transporter system downstream of the supply material having discrete elements. In the preferred embodiment, the transporter system includes (i) a vertical feed, inline blower and (ii) a material agitator upstream of the vertical feed, inline blower. The apparatus may further include an applicator assembly connected downstream to the transporter system. In the preferred embodiment, the material is installed without the use of water.

Abstract: A portable radar simulator which when connected to a transmitting means s as a magnetron generated microwave threat transmitter simulates up to 2048 pre-programmed radar signatures. The portable radar simulator comprises a replaceable Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory (EPROM) which will hold up to 2048 pre-programmed radar signatures. Selection of a particular radar threat to be simulated is entered by an operator via thumbwheel switches located on the front panel of the simulator. The portable radar simulator simulates such radar parameters as jitter, stagger, frequency hop, simple and complex scans, pulse repetition intervals and frequency pulse widths.
