RCA-NBC research scientists
and engineers are blazing new paths
in the use of ultra-high frequencies — to
increase the nation's enjoyment of television
World's first custom -6u/lt UHF station
— points fie way to more TVwr more people
Although television now reaches 45 million people in more than 12 million homes, thousands of communities are still too far from existing stations to be reached bv any programs. Moreover, under present conditions, many cities with limited program service want, but can't have, additional TV stations.
In preparation for the establishment of a country-wide television service, RCA has pioneered for many years in ultra-highfrequency T(UHF) research.
Today — an experimental station built by RCA at Rridgeport, Conn., is supplying the practical experience and engineer
ing facts needed to design the best UHF equipment— including transmitters, receivers, and converters. NBC programs on the air during the full broadcast day are used by RCA — and other manufacturers, too — for large-scale field tests.
From results of this pioneering, RCA engineers have determined that practical UHF equipment can be built to serve the public, and that present RCA Victor television sets can be readily adapted to give equally fine performance on both UHF and VHF.
