“…Circuits designed for the transmission of sound signals are, however, useless for the relaying of television signals on account of the wide band of frequencies associated with the latter. For transmission of television signals over short distances it has been found possible to obtain satisfactory results by special equalization of cable circuits originally installed for telephone service (Strieby and Weis, 1941). Such circuits have been used, for example, for the transmission of television signals from the Madison Square Garden area to the N.B.C.…”

“…When nation-wide sound broadcasting networks were desired, it was possible to utilize, in many instances, existingfacilities which had been installed for the purposes of telephonic communication, It does not appear, however, that any existing facilities may be employed satisfactorily for television network purposes. Tests have 'been made, using both wire line (Strieby and Weis, 1941) and radio circuits (Kroger, Trevor and Smith, 1940), which have shown that either medium is capable of providing the network facilities desired. Relative costs of the two media are not yet accurately known, but it seems likely that radio relaying will be adopted first in most cases because the facilities can be installed more quickly.…”

1. HISTORICAL INTRODUCTIONLT HoUG H this Report covers principally the most modern developments in the field of television, a brief historical outline of the inventions, discoveries and improvements which contributed most to its progress still serves a useful purpose. During the past several decades the technical advances in all branches of electrical communication-particularly radio-have been nothing short of phenomenal. It is therefore not altogether surprising that the development of electronic television is likely to be taken as a matter of course, and the fact that it had its humble beginnings often completely forgotten.Probably the first practical.discovery leading to the development of modem television was that which occurred in Valentia, Ireland, in 1873 (Larner, 1929), Recent television developmentsI39 1 'I II I ~, , , plar 140.
