TEN TELEVISION APPLICATIONS SET FOR HEARINGS
More than a score of applications for experimental licenses in the television field await action of the Federal Radio Commission, which has just reconvened after a Summer recess. Ten of these requests have been set for hearing, and another dozen are awaiting assignments on the docket. Because of the increasing demand for permits, the Commission has decided to conduct hearings as is done on broadcasting applications.
Twenty-two experimental radio stations are now licensed by the Commission and all but five are operating on fixed schedules. Besides the new applications designated for hearing, another dozen await Commission action, either to be set for hearing or following hearing.
The applications, designated for hearing at the Commiss¬ ion's first meeting since it recessed last June, involve requests both for assignments of frequencies in the four short wave bands and in the ultra high frequencies, beyond 23000 kilocycles. The Com¬ mission has set aside four bands, each 100 kilocycles wide in the continental short wave band, ranging between 1500 and 6000 kilo¬ cycles, and the same number of bands of much greater widths in the ultra high frequencies where the waves have the characteristics of light beams rather than electrical impulses.
For the most part the experimental television stations now on the air are located around New York and Chicago. There are none licensed for operation in the West or on the Pacific Coast. The 10 new applications designated for hearing are those of Gimble Bros. Television and Development and Research Co. , Philadelphia, Pa. ; Trav-Ler Manufacturing Corporation of Illinois, St. Louis, Mo.; W JRy the GoodY/ill Station, Inc. , Pontiac, Mich. ; Memphis Commercial Appeal, Inc. , Bartlett, Tenn. ; Easton Coil Co. , Inc. , New York City; American Television Laboratories, Inc., Hollywood, Calif.; Indiana’s Community Broadcasting Corp. , Hartford, Ind. ; National Co. Inc. , Malden, Mass. ; Pilot Radio & Tube Corp. , Lawrence, Mass. , and the Crosley Radio Corporation, Cincinnati, Ohio.
