	Television Technology
		At a television station, the electronic signal from a television camera can be combined and/or mixed with video signals from other devices such as video tape players, computers, film chains or telecines (motion picture and slide projector units whose outputs have been converted to video signals) using what is known as a switcher.
		In this case the television signal is transmitted to the satellite on a specific frequency and then retransmitted at a different frequency by the satellite's transmitter back to the earth.
		A television receiver picks up the transmitted television signals sent over-the-air or by cable or satellite, removes the necessary video and audio signals that had been piggy-backed on the carrier wave, discards the carrier wave, and amplifies and converts the video and audio signals into picture and sound.

		Television news bulletins, as an informative discourse on the present, are credible to their respective audiences insofar as they are a product of a set of coherent and complementary strategies (information and discourse).
		In the six television channels of State-wide range, the information discourse is constructed almost exclusively from the perspective of the respective State: the broadcast institution and its audience share a thematic ambit mutually considered as particular which corresponds to the limits of political boundaries.

		Channels 1 through 6 are at lower frequencies and the rest are higher.

	The Lost Channels
		Channel 1 TV stations were not being built anywhere because, among other things, assignees had to wait for the old FM broadcast band radio stations to relocate into their present band of 88-108Mhz.
		The next year (1948) channel 1 was dropped by the FCC, but because a large number of channel 2 stations (and other channels) were already on-air, it decided not to renumber the system (and rewrite the entire book of TV regulations).
		Riverside's channel 1 at least in theory could have been reassigned to channel 12, but with the large number of VHF stations powering up nationwide in 1948, it became painfully obvious that these original allocations were all too closely spaced and unexpected interference was coming up everywhere.

	Access Television - Where and Why
		Community or public access television is still a quite unknown alternative to privately or government run commercial or public service television.

	News Release: FCC Seeks Comment on Proposal to Reallocate Television Channels 60-69 (746-806 MHZ) to Other Services
		The Commission stated that the reallocation of these channels would help to alleviate a critical shortage of public safety spectrum, make new technologies and services available to the American public, and allow more efficient use of spectrum in the 746-806 MHz band.
		All full service television broadcast stations will be protected against interference during the DTV transition period, which is targeted for completion in the year 2006.
		The PSWAC found that the currently allocated public safety spectrum is insufficient to support current voice and data needs of the public safety community, and fails to provide adequate capacity for interoperability channels or to meet future needs based on projected population growth and demographic changes.
