The "CRM-114 Discriminator" was a key component to the plot of the movie.
It was totally fictional.

Emergency Action Messages & Force Direction Messages in that era would
have been sent out over HF/SSB radio over several channels & from several
high-power radio stations located around the world, and the coded messages
would have been authenticated using a part of the message & data contained
aboard the B-52.

Hey gang, yall remember the movie Dr. Strange Love? Well, I was very
impress with the photography used in the inside of that aircraft.

I can not figure out how the top officer was able to send the (Doomsday)
signal to the aircraft. Then when they got the signal I remember seeing a
device with lots off number. I guess it was controled by a radio.

Somehow, the aircraft isolated all incoming signal. I guess that was part
of the procedure.

But wasn't their a way for the top officer or president to communicate
with the aircraft to put a stop to this?

I have not seen the movie in a while.
