Reference: Airtel dated 1/12/79
Examination requested: Duplication

Remarks: For information of Miami, due to the large volume of tape recordings received in this matter, no enhancement examinations are being conducted except in exceptional circumstances. Additionally, the interference and distortion present on the radio transmissions are not generally amenable to enhancement.
One copy of Q834 has been submitted to the Technical Evaluation Unit of the FBI Laboratory for such examination as they deem appropriate.
