WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO CHANNEL 1? Ever wonder why your television dial starts with Channel 2? Find out why in this brief look at the early days of television and how it all began. WHEN A TELEVISION RECEIVER IS PURCHASED in the United States, you can take it anywhere in the country, plug it in, pull up the “rabbit ears,” and tune in a station. That is possible because we have national broadcasting standards that are common throughout the country. Yet, one time commercial television was going to be introduced to the American public without standards. Fortunately, that “experiment” ended before it even started. But let’s not get ahead of the story! UP TO 1937 During the first few months of 1933, the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) demonstrated the first successful all-electronic television system. Broadcasts were made from the RCA experimental television transmitter, W2XBS, located at the top of the Empire State Building in New York City. The characteristics of that early all-electronic television system were modest: Lines: 240 Frames: 24 per second Scanning: Sequential (no interlacing) Bandwidth: 2 MHz Video carrier: AM modulated, full sideband Audio carrier: AM modulated, full sideband Yet, the results were far better than any mechanical television system had ever accomplished. For those experiments, the video carrier was approximately 45 MHz. It may be hard for us to appreciate fully what RCA had accomplished in 1933. But to give you an idea: Many of the experimental television broadcasts were still using frequencies in the 2 to 3 MHz range, and bandwidths of 100 kHz. In addition, the earlier systems were mechanical using gears, motors, mirrors, etc. As television advanced, each step pointed towards non-mechanical systems, and higher bandwidths and carrier frequencies. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) was established by an act of Congress on June 22, 1934. It was about that time that a portion of the VHF radio spec
