"UFO Intelligence Newsletter" (USA, 1990s - Fran Ridge of Nicap.org, including MADAR UFO detection system) now online

Fran Ridge (of the excellent Nicap.org website) has kindly given me permission to upload scans of his "UFO Intelligence" newsletter. Fran published this newsletters in the USA in the 1990s.

This newsletters included material on Fran's "MADAR" UFO detection system. He described his "Multiple Anomaly Detection And Recording" system as a "magnet variometer detection unit with a light beam scanning method" built in 1970 and "equipped with a mechanical chart recorder and an alarm system, as well as a stop-clock". He stated that the "main purpose was to provide 'early warning' of a UFO presence within the system's umbrella" which was approximately a 5-mile radius.

The AFU in Sweden has scanned 12 issues.  Barry Greenwood in the USA has a few additional issues, so I'll ask him if he can scan those.

This is the latest addition to the USA folder I've created on the AFU's website.
