IRE reports on SINGLE SIDEBAND! The December issue of Proceedings of the IRE presents a roundup of the most recent technical discoveries as presented by the Joint Technical Advisory Committee through its sub committee on single sideband techniques. Because single sideband offers advantages over conventional AM systems for police radios, taxi radios, ship to shore radios, as well as in many other practical uses, the JTAC has launched a special study for the FCC on this new development in radio communication. Interest in single sideband systems is high because they: 1. Reduce the size and weight of equipment, allow effective communication when conditions limit the size of the installation. 2. Conserve the radio spectrum by not taking up as wide a band of frequencies as do AM signals. 3. Permit a reduction in the total radiated power required to accomplish a given communication function. The December issue of Proceedings of the IRE begins with a guest Editorial by the Honorable George C. McConnaughey, Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission and will take its place in the record of radio-electronics growth. IRE gave you the color TV issues of October, 1951, and January, 1954, the scatter propagation issue of October, 1955, the earth satellite issue of June, 1956, and now December's special single sideband issue-a reference work of the decade!
