MIL-STB-188

Numbers missing[edit]

There are numbers missing in the list :165A, 220, 181B. Lincher 23:16, 18 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You don't say? ;) Added a list stub to make that evident. If you know what the titles of the above are, feel free to add them. --J Clear 02:42, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

After going over several listings of the standards I believe they are now all on this page. If I am mistaken please add them.--Wowaconia 21:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Are the letters after the articles notes of revison. if so should this be noted?[edit]

I suspect that the deference between 125 and 125A is that 125A is a revison of the 125. I don't know if this is true but many of the # articles have the same title as the numberic-Alpha ones, so I really assume it is the case. Someone with more knowledge on this should confirm and a note should be included in the article if that's the case.--Wowaconia 20:37, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I found a site that seems to indicate this is the case as it tracks revisions. I'll change the verbage in the lead in sentences to the lists to indicate their currently in use and remove any # that has is followed by a revison. If I have erred in my reading of this feel free to go back and revert these changes. The site I'm looking at lists the numberic-alpha articles and then in a column that says Previously Mandated Standard lists the ones with alpha characters.--Wowaconia 20:43, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Earlier dates[edit]

The article gave me the impression that the standard originated in the 1980's. I designed serial telecommunications equipment for the DCA in about 1973 that was required to use 188 circuits instead of RS-232, so the standard must have originated before then.

If you can find additional information feel free to add it. I could only find info to the late 1980s but this may be because all my sources where documents the government placed on the internet. So earlier information may not be available online just because there was no internet in the early 1970s or earlier.--Wowaconia 13:33, 6 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
According to several book & web sources, the following standards from the 1950s and 1960s contained the definition of the FIELDATA code, but according to this article about MIL-STD-188 they might have contained a lot more:
  • Military Communication System Technical Standard, MIL-STD-188A, 1958-04-25
  • Military Communication System Technical Standard, MIL-STD-188B, 1964-02-24
  • Military Communication System Technical Standard, MIL-STD-188C, 1969-11-24
