Abstract :
The field of telemetering, contrary to some ideas, is much older than missile development Recognition was given this point when the decision was made to delete the restrictive word “radio” from the title of this group. The program of the 1953 National Telemetering Conference, which underscored all phases of the telemetering art, emphasized the broad aspects of this electronic field and the fact that we were a group of engineers working in a large community of broad interests.
