The Roswell Report: Fact versus Fiction in the New Mexico Desert was published in 1995 by Headquarters United States Air Force. It was written in response to Representative Steven H. Schiff's request and a General Accounting Office audit, and it contains Col. Richard L. Weaver's report and 1st Lt. James McAndrew's synopsis, along with attachments, appendices and photographs. The report says researchers found no evidence of an extraterrestrial craft or crew. It concludes that the 1947 debris came from a Project MOGUL balloon train.

B. The improvement of radio transmitter gear; it is
planned to utilize the three megacycle transmitter
developed in the Electrical Engineering Laboratories
at New York University. ln previous tests, this has
provided clearer reception and a longer range for
comparable weight than either the 72 megacycle or
397 megacycle units previously used. To provide
direction finding, 397 megacycle carrier signal will
also be transmitted which will be tracked by SCR-658
sets. It is also hoped that a better light weight
battery pack can be developed for airborne use.
c. The Olland cycle time-interval method of presssure
measuring and data presentation is being adapted,
-with the following advantages anticipated:
{1) The direct interpretation of pressure data
in tenns of' the time interval eliminates the ambiguities
inherent in counting pressure contacts in the Diamond-
Hinman system. Used in conjunction with the Brush re-
corder operating at medium speed, and with four turns
on a helix rotating once a minute, the pressure read-
ability of' this system will be better than one millibar.
(2) Under noisy conditions the recorded data obtained
with this system will be more readable than the audio
signal now being employed. When only pressure data is
being transmitted, this system can l:e more economical
of' power than is a system of' modulated audio frequencies.
{3) In cases where data o~her than pressure is also
to be transmitted on the same radio channel, the pressure
