	Television in The World of Tomorrow
		Sales of the deluxe mechanical television receivers were limited to extreme enthusiasts or the wealthy due to their high cost.
		The ceremony was televised, and watched by several hundred viewers on TV receivers inside the RCA Pavilion at the fairgrounds, as well as on receivers installed on the 62nd floor of Radio City in Manhattan.
		Television was such a novelty at the time that "I was televised" cards were handed out as a souvenir of the experience.

	History of Communications - Historical Periods in Television Technology: 1880-1929
		Television was actually invented long before the technology to make it a reality came into being.
		Bell was so concerned that someone would beat him to the punch on such an invention that in 1880 he deposited a sealed box containing a "photophone" with the Smithsonian Institution in case he needed to prove his priority of invention.
		He broadcast the 1st television commercial in 1930, for which he was promptly fined by the Federal Radio Commission, the predecessor of the FCC.

		We're sad to announce another death in the classic television family—Harvey Korman, one of the stars on "The Carol Burnett Show" passed away yesterday at the age of 81.
		Perhaps his greatest claim to fame, however, is that not only did he compose the theme song for "The Andy Griffith Show," he's the man heard whistling the tune.
		On this week's Way Back Wednesdays, courtesy of NBC.com, we've got a great episode from "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour," titled "What Really Happened," and featuring the story of a maid who, after being fired, tries to poison her former employer.

	Radio & Television Timeline - Greatest Engineering Achievements of the Twentieth Century
		Radio and television were major agents of social change in the 20th century, opening windows to other peoples and places and bringing distant events directly into millions of homes.
		Charles F. Jenkins pioneers his mechanical wireless television system, radiovision, with a public transmission sent from a navy radio station across the Anacostia River to his office in downtown Washington, D.C. Jenkins’s radiovisor is a multitube radio set with a special scanning-drum attachment for receiving pictures—cloudy 40- to 48-line images projected on a six-inch-square mirror.
		The future of radio and television is forever changed when John Bardeen, Walter Brattain, and William Shockley of Bell Laboratories co-invent the transistor.

	Jenkins, Charles Francis
		Charles Francis Jenkins was a leading inventor and promoter of mechanical scanning television and largely responsible for strong and passionate interest in television in the 1920s and early 1930s in the United States.
		In December 1928 the Jenkins Television Corporation was founded in New Jersey to sell Jenkins television equipment and operate television stations to promote the sale of receivers to the public and equipment for experimenters and other experimental stations.
		The limitations inherent in mechanical television's picture quality kept it from being able to compete with electronic scanning television systems and it was, therefore, deemed a failure and doomed to quick obsolescence in America.

		By 1933 when Philco decided that television patent research was no longer a part of its corporate vision, Farnsworth returned to his own labs.

		The pioneers of television were the Russians, Nipkow who invented a mechanical revolving scanning disk in 1884 and Rosing who used a cathode ray tube in 1907 to display images from a mechanical transmitter.

		Predictions of the social effects of television were both positive and cautionary, further illustrating the prospects of television and popularity it gained as it attempted to fulfill public expectations.
		Kingdom Tyler, a television engineer with CBS during this period, equated 441 lines to the resolution of eight or 16mm home movies; however, he advocated even higher definition, actually identifying a 1000 line HDTV device that was experimentally available in 1946 and much closer to the 35mm benchmark.
