/* Written 0137 20 Jun 86 by newton2@ucbtopaz.berkeley.edu in net.crypt */ A while ago a note mentioned that Bell Atlantic was offering a secure-speech accessory for cellular telephones in the Washington D.C. area. Can someone followup with some details, rumors, etc? Sample questions: [...] 6. Maybe this should have come first-- is this just the NSA LCSV (lowcost secure voice) terminal, arriving early in the market? (Or I should add, preannounced to preempt the market?) [...] Thanks for any info. Doug Maisel /* End of text from okstate.UUCP:net.crypt */ It seems that it would not be the STU-III class (which I believe is the same program that will bring us LCSV in early [I'll take bids on mid]-1987). It could, however, just be a pre-announcement, like AT&T and Motorola did with Future Secure Voice System (FSVS). But I really doubt that anything that is an 'accessory' would be suitable for even UNS-R security, unless it is something that is factory or field- service installed. Kurt F. Sauer Tulsa, Oklahoma
