-3- They also point to the new DuMont Electronicam system and the growing use of multiple film camera systems using television techniques to cut cost and time in production of film programs. Only time can tell which of these systems will ultimately win out. For the complete story we refer you to the November 14 issue of Broadcasting-Tele- casting magazine. ********** Many of our readers wonder why we do not include a ’’Swap Shop” column. We’d like to run such a column, but as you no doubt know, many educational institutions, espe¬ cially those tax supported, have problems when they try to sell or swap equipment. For those interested in used FM transmitters, two used 3 kw FM transmitters are ad¬ vertised in the October 31 issue of Broadcasting-Telecasting and there is another 3 kw FM transmitter listed in the November 14 issue. Within the past week we received a list of equipment from the Gates Radio Company of Quincy, Illinois—an inventory close-out of broadcasting, recording, and test equip¬ ment, plus tubes and parts. If you are interested, I’d suggest you write directly to them for the list. The prices look right, if they have items you can use. ********** Issue No. 4 of the NAEB Engineering Newsletter should be in the mail soon.. In addi¬ tion to material published previously in the regular NAEB Newsletter , it will contain two articles by Berten A. Holmberg, ’’Target Blanking Problems in Image Orthicon Cameras,” and ’’Classifying 16 mm Emulsion Positions and Film Winds,” and one by Keith K. Ketcham, ’’Data on Eastman 7374 Negative Film Stock”. ********** A new 226 page microwave manual, ’’Point to Point Radio Relay Systems—44 me to 13,000 me,” originally prepared for the Air Force, is being offered commercially for $2.00 by the RCA Government Service Department, Camden, New Jersey. This manual covers propagation, interference, etc. and includes charts, curves and monograms. ********** If you contemplate making Proof of Performance Measurements on your television trans¬ mitter, we have a limited supply of a paper by Alex C, Latker of the General Electric Company, which we believe will be helpful to you. It was presented at the 1955 NARTB Broadcast Engineering Conference, and is titled ”A Discussion of Techniques for Mak¬ ing VHF Proof of Performance Measurements.” Since our supply is so limited, we shall have to restrict requests for this paper to those who are chief engineers of oper¬ ating television stations. Others may be able to obtain a copy from their General Electric Sales Representative. ********** This space could have been used to list ’’equipment for sale” or ’’equipment wanted,” Since we have nothing to list under either of these classifications it provides us with the opportunity to wish all of our readers MERRY CHRISTMAS I Best Wishes for the New Year!
