Television digest with electronic reports (Jan-Dec 1952)

Addenda io Final Television Allocation Report Transmitting Antenna Coordinates and Sliding Scale for Use with Figures 5 & 6 Editor’s Note: So many technicians have asked us to provide a separate sliding scale for use with Figs. 5 & 6 (pp. 200 & 201 of our printed copy of FCC’s Report) that we are supplying it herewith. In addition, also at the request of the engineers, we have compiled from FCC sources a list of geographical coordinates (exact latitudes & longitudes) for transmitters of all existing stations. Copies of this sheet are being made available to all full-service subscribers who got the 243-p. Report we printed; it's also available to all who purchased extra copies — no charge.
