I am culling thru some IBM docs, and came across a
boring printer memo
(for the 3203, all about print quality, big deal) bound in an

the tag on the front says "FRAME 41, XD-1 MAINTENANCE SUPPORT, GROUP
201-250". This cam from a gut that gave RCS a big pile of IBM docs (he
was an FE) in the Boston area.
XD-1 as in AN/FSQ-7(XD-1)?
Sounds like it. XD-1 would have been at MIT's Lincoln Labs facility.
Frame 41 is the Long-range Radar Inputs (LRI) unit. Interesting find.
