One of a kind books on technical surveillance by Robert W. Doms, Sr.
About the Author:
Practical Countermeasures for Law
Enforcement
As I Recall A personal history of electronic surveillance and related technology, as well as the evolution of the federal statutes that cover electronic surveillance. My copy of
"As I Recall" arrived today. Great piece of research.
Every agency that has a serious electronic surveillance program
ought to present a copy to each of its tech people and make it
required reading. This has got to be the first (and maybe the
only) honest, realistic book about the technology and evolution
of electronic surveillance.
A Guide for Establishing
Technical Surveillance Operations

Bell offered to sell his invention to Western Union. A committee was formed to review Bell's proposal and this is what they said, "The telephone is named by its inventor A. G. Bell. He believes that one day they will be installed in every residence and place of business. Bell's profession is that of a voice teacher. Yet, he claims to have discovered an instrument of great practical value in communication which has been overlooked by thousands of workers who have spent years in the field. Bell's proposals to place his instrument in almost every home and business is fantastic. The central exchange alone would represent a huge outlay in real estate and buildings, to say nothing of the electrical equipment. In conclusion the committee feels that it must advise against any investment in Bell's scheme. We do not doubt that it will find users in special circumstances, but any developments of the kind and scale which Bell so fondly imagines is utterly out of the question."
