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

CLAIM STAKING Hallicrafters and Very High Frequency HALLICRAFTERS NEW $600,000 HOME NOW UNDER CONSTRUCTION. Based on the facts in the case, Hallicrafters can stake out a very strong claim to leadership in the very high frequency field. The facts include such things as the Model S-37, FMAM receiver for very high frequency work. The Model S-37 operates from 130 to 210 Mc— the highest frequency range of any general coverage commercial type receiver. Hallicrafters further supports its claim to domination in the high frequency field with the Model S-36A, FM-AMCW receiver. The 36A operates from 27.8 to 143 Mc, covers both old and new FM bands and is the only commercially built receiver covering this range. Further developments in this direction can soon be revealed — adding further support to Hallicrafters claim to continued supremacy in the high frequency field. hallicrafters radio THE HALLICRAFTERS CO., MANUFACTURERS OF RADIO AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT • CHICAGO 16, U.
