Fig. 5. Transmitter building and antenna structure. The transmitter is located on top of Mount Royal. The turnstile antenna at the top is for the present television transmitter on channel 2. The tubular section consists of two pylon antennas for frequency modulation transmitters. The illustration also shows an antenna for a future transmitter on channel 6. The balcony will support a microwave receiving antenna for use in conjunction with the mobile unit at times when the latter is not within line-of-sight of the studio building.

Program Plans: The recent report of the Royal Commission on National Development in the Arts, Letters and Sciences, more popularly known as the Massey Report, made certain recommendations with regard to the objectives which should determine the choice of material for Canadian radio and television programs.

We believe that it should be used not only as a means of entertainment, but also as a medium for the awakening of a greater appreciation and a better understanding of the more important fields of human endeavour.
