I was in comms in the AF where we troubleshot and managed A/G, RAPCON and Telcomm circuits, we had trouble codes dictated by DCA.
IIRC, the code for no trouble found, was NNB. The higher ups never wanted to see that in the reports.

I’d sit with the techs sometimes as they troubleshot and I’d watch what they put down. If they tested it and it worked they’d just randomly select a code. I’d ask why and they’d say, “We were told not to use the no-trouble-found code.”
It was a valuable experience in how life really worked. The guy who regularly came up with new codes had not only never troubleshot anything, he’d never even worked on the equipment. He lived in his own little idyllic universe, much like liberals.
