Abstract :
Some of the factors governing the choice of equipment for use in small commercial television stations in isolated areas are discussed. Specific reference is made to two different types of installation at station ZBM-TV, Bermuda, using the same basic equipment. The two systems described relate to (a) a combined television centre containing both studio and transmitter in the same building; and (b) separate studio and transmitter sites. The equipment used included vidicon telecine and studio cameras and a 500W vision transmitter; details are given of these items and also of vision, sound and control facilities.
