Description:
This trade paper began in 1931 with a focus on radio, but as the TV industry expanded in the post-World War II era, the paper increasingly became devoted to television (even the title changed to BROADCASTING TELECASTING). Developments in technology, policy, advertising, and programming were covered. The paper's advertisements and articles reveal the intricate relationship among sponsors, stations, program suppliers, and station representatives -- the industry's term for middle-men who represented numerous local stations in negotiations with national sponsors. The success of particular stations or programming choices are frequently trumpeted in BROADCASTING'S advertisements -- always with the goal of selling more of something, such as a film program or a station's spot advertising time. -- Eric Hoyt, 2014

A microphone which will radically change and very measurably improve broadcast studio technique. A microphone which, moreover, will be more reliable and more convenient than any yet devised. Well, that's 100% right. And what's more — this microphone will be available within the next few weeks. It was only natural that the engineers who developed and introduced the condenser microphone should develop its successor, "the microphone without a diaphragm." Their efforts have resulted in the perfection of a microphone free from the cavity reso TRANSMITTER SECTION RCA Victor Company, Inc. Camden, N.

A microphone which, because it is directional, is much less affected by reverberation and which, because of this and its high sensitivity, permits placing of artists nearly twice as far away. A microphone which maybe remotely located from its amplifier and which may, therefore, be easily and quickly moved about. Full technical information on this microphone is nearly ready.
