[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [QB] The fact that this cloak was so hard to operate suggests to me that it wasn't the plug and play Romulan cloaking device we saw in the Enterprise Incident. That device just needed to be plugged in and turned on. On maybe Klingon engineer are a lot less intelligent than Starfleet engineer. I'm thinking that this might be a Klingon version of a cloaking device, which took a lot of very precise balancing of output from various devices but still didn't work very well. So, maybe Starfleet didn't even recognize it as a true cloak. I'm assuming that the Klingons had encounter the Romulan cloaking systems sometime before "Balance of Terror." For all we know the Klingons and Romulans had been fighting for decades and the Romulans were getting the upper hand because of their effective cloaking device. To Klingons attempted to cobble together a rather unstable cloaking system themselves. Since it didn't work that well, they were willing to trade a complete ship and reactor system (D7) for the Romulan cloak. (All these contortions are killing my back) I'd like to believe that ship designations, like Starfleet registries, are at least semi-chronological, so I'm thinking these events predate the appearance of the D7 by a considerable time. So, unless we assume this is the Romulan cloaking device, this Caleb IV could have happened almost anytime before Errand of Mercy [/QB][/QUOTE]
