We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.
Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

direction, and eleven thousandths of an inch away from the circle toward the center of the disk. The next hole is punched on the next radial line in a counter-clockwise direction and twenty-two thousands of an inch from the circle toward the center of disk, and so on around the disk, each hole being eleven thousandths of an inch nearer the center of the disk than the last one. A machinist's micrometer is useful in laying off these distances. The disk is provided with a suitable hub, or means to fasten it securely to the shaft of its driving motor.
The motor to drive the disk must revolve at 900 r.p.m. An eight pole synchronous motor operating on 60 cycles revolves at this speed. An induction or direct current motor of a higher normal speed than 900 r.p.m. can be reduced to 900 r.p.m. by inserting a rheostat in series with it and the line used where 50 cycle current or batteries must be the power supply. The motor from a large electric fan is often suitable. A neon plate lamp, as can be secured from the larger radio supply houses, is mounted on a simple support on the motor. It is positioned above the motor and behind the spiral of the disk in such a way that it can be seen through the holes of the disk when the disk is revolving. The neon lamp takes the place of the loudspeaker of a radio set, and is similarly connected, according to the instructions furnished by the manufacturer.
For a 17 inch diameter disk, which will convert existing 45 line 3 spiral equipment for Don Lee reception, the measurements are as follows : Circle, exactly 8 inch radius ; 80 divisions, each \y2 degrees ; hole size, ten thousandths of an inch in diameter ; each hole six and one-half thousandths closer to center of disk than previous hole.
ELECTRICAL SCANNING
A cathode ray tube capable of being modulated on its anode or grid is required, and scanning sources of 1200 cycles per second and 15 cycles per second of sawtooth wave-form are required. A gas triode, as the RCA 885, will produce these sawtooth waves. The output of the scanning sources are supplied to the deflection plates of the cathode ray tube to deflect the electron beam over the fluorescent screen to give the square field of view of the receiver.
Reports on reception results are appreciated from lookers and listeners. If a looker, definitely describe the action and scenes transmitted, and their exact time of reception, with comments on detail, and fading, ghost images, and interference, if any. If a listener, give the text of voice announcements which are transmitted on the hour and half-hour, identifying the pictures being broadcast, the exact time thereof, and data on the fading cycle, with the maximum and minimum intensity thereof in the usual "R" designation, intensity of static and interference, if any.
Upon request, your report will be compared with the official station log, and, if corresponding, a formal acknowledgement of your reception will be sent to you.
The information presented herewith is that which has been previously mentioned in the International Photographer as available to those who will write to the Don Lee Television Department.
