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

With one major blower — less motors to maintain and consume current. Lower plate voltage (5000 volts compared to the usual 8000) means reduction of insulation problems and greater immunity to breakdowns and costly part replacements. Power factor at 5KW. is 90%. And performance — thoriated tungsten power tube filaments provide consistent 60 Db. or better noise reduction while tube and component adjuncts contribute naturally to lower distortion, especially at higher frequencies.
