Abstract
Television pictures commonly exhibit non-uniform gamma or gamma distortion and several factors are involved at the transmitter and receiver, including an indefinite transfer standard. Some stations have a linear transfer of brightness to video modulation, others have a square root curve, but as far as is known none is modulating logarithmically as tentatively specified under the FCC Standards.
