Abstract :
Intercity networks appear vital to the success of television broadcasting. Experiments with wire lines for this purpose and for local transmission of present-day television signals are reported herein. The design and construction of the equipment used are described and its performance characteristics given. The intercity lines discussed involve carrier transmission over coaxial cable with repeaters which pass a net band of about 2 3/4 megacycles. For local intracity connections video transmission of about a 4 mc band is obtained over existing telephone plant or by means of special low attenuation cable. Various circuit arrangements including the facilities used in bringing scenes from the Republican Convention in Philadelphia to the N.B.C. in New York are shown together with their overall television transmission characteristics.
