YOUR NEW DIRECTORIES: New 1947 FCC Personnel Directory which we have compiled, most complete and authentic extant, is sent you herewith as Supplement No 46. File it in your binder for handy reference, for it contains not only roster of FCC's Wash- ington personnel but data on regional offices (addresses, phone numbers, executives) with whom you may have to do business. In preparation, also, is a completely revised TV Directory. And next week, we will send you an entirely new FM Directory in 6 parts, containing under one cover complete logs of FM licensees, CP holders, conditionals, pending applications, educational grantees and applicants, developmental stations. It is our plan to issue addenda to this Directory each week (on pink sheets), then recapitulate and republish up -to -date directories quarterly.

WILL PETRILLO LIFT BAN? There's a chance the unpredictable Mr. Petrillo will lift ban against AM -FM music duplication in new contracts with networks, about to be negotiated. Old ones with New York, Chicago, Los Angeles locals expire this Jan. 31. Inquiry on FM situation evoked only usual silence from Petrillo. From New York Local 806, it brought word there is no foundation to "rumor." And network sources indicated there was "reason to hope" story was true, but they knew nothing definite since negotiations have not yet begun.

AM -FM problem ties into NAB -AFM negotiations, abruptly ended after 3 meetings earlier last year, unresumed when Petrillo failed to reply to NAB President Miller's letters requesting further parleys -- presumably because music czar was so sore at NAB for its alleged part in passage of Lea Bill.

It's known Petrillo has lifted ban in at least one instance, allowing an independent FM to carry network music. It also is common knowledge other union leaders, sensing popular reaction against labor, are counseling expediency if not caution -- fearful Lea Bill may be extended to cover all labor, especially if Supreme Court upholds Chicago court's decision (Vol. 2, No. 49). Moreover, common sense, even from Petrillo's myopic viewpoint, would dictate encouraging FM to get going, then getting "pound of flesh" when it's mature enough for the slaughter.

MORE MAKERS OF TV SETS: Add Crosley, Admiral, Stewart -Warner to the handful of brand -name radio manufacturers producing TV sets now, or planning to produce them soon. These, in addition to the several previously reporting 1947 plans (Vol. 2, No. 49, 50).

Crosley sends word it will be in production of TV sets after July 1, possibly timing markets for start of 2 Crosley video outlets, in Cincinnati and Ohio, recently authorized by FCC (Vol. 2, No. 47). Its first set will be a TV- FM -AM- phonograph console with 10 -in. tube, selling for around $750. Plans call for 10,000 -15,000 units in 1947. Admiral has 2 TV models on display at this month's American Furniture Mart in Chicago, and Stewart- Warner's trade ads this week announced new TV console with AM; we will report further on these later. U.S. Television Corp., now producing

www.americanradiohistory.com about 150 "Tele- Symphonic" large- screen models per month (at $2,400), reports it will double this production shortly, but is concentrating distribution among tav- erns and other gathering places, expects to sell about 5,000 during 1947. In Washington's Statler Friday, an RCA crew en route to Detroit and then Chicago's Furniture Mart unveiled 2 new console models -- the 641 -TV, 10 -in. tube with AM- FM- phonograph, to sell around $800; the 648 -PTK, large -screen projection model with AM -FM, to sell around $1,200. "T -Day" for their release is tentatively set for sometime in March. Also announced was $25 increase in 630 -TS table model with 10 -in. tube already released, making its cost $375. The 621 -TS table model with 7 -in. tube, in production but not very widely distributed yet, will be offered in choice of walnut or maple at $250.

HOW MANY FM SETS? Question we're most often asked about FM: How many FM sets are now in use? Best answer we can give: (1) Old FMBI pre -war figures, only ones extant. It calculated 395,000 FM receivers (all low -band) sold before wartime freeze stopped all civilian production. Of these, some 75,000 were non -AM combinations. Only distribution estimates available show sets mostly in areas having pre -war FM service: New York, 120,000; Chicago, 80,000; Boston, 35,000; Detroit, 25,000; Milwaukee, 21,000; Philadelphia, 20,000; remainder scattered.

(2) RMA production figures to date for FM sets of all kinds and makes. Wartime controls were lifted in latter 1945, during whole of which only 300,000 radio sets were made, practically none with FM. For first 11 months of 1946, RMA shows 138,055 FM sets. To this may be added at least 25,000 more for December, as yet unreported. RMA does not attempt to show where sets went, though it can be assumed they naturally went to cities with FM stations. (For breakdown of RMA figure by months, See Vol. 2, No. 47, 51.)

SMOKING OUT 'RADIO REDS': Where there's so much talk, you may be sure something's in the wind -- and talk about a Red -hunt in radio (Vol. 2, No. 52) won't down. It all adds up to hopes and efforts in some quarters to get Congress to embark on an investigative spree covering FCC, FM, Blue Book, etc., which may or may not eventu- ate. It has some officials on uneasy seat, to say the least. In his Thursday broadcast, Red -hating, pink- baiting, crusading MBS Commen- tator Fulton Lewis Jr. made bold (for a broadcaster!) to point out that House Cam- paign Investigating Committee report showed Mrs. Clifford Durr, wife of the oft - dissenting FCC commissioner and sister of Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black's wife, was contributor to N.Y. Congressional campaign of Communist- tinged Rep. Marcantonio. On inquiry, she said she contributed $25 "out of my household funds, which means Mr. Durr had to go without steaks for awhile." Earlier, in "leaked" report to House Committee on Un- American Activities, Counsel Ernie Adamson devoted 22 out of 72 pages to Metropolitan Broadcasting Co., which holds CP for new WQQW, Washington (also CP holder for FM), which goes. on air Sunday, Jan. 5. Adamson charged Communists and fellow travelers among stockholders, named some names, alleged station's purpose was "to issue communistic propaganda over the American airwaves." He also had unkind words for Blue Book, Author Siep- mann, National Maritime Union (FM applicant for New York), Hollywood Community Radio Group (FM -AM applicant for Los Angeles). But Adamson almost immediately got sacked for letting report out before committee members had chance to see it. When it was officially printed (as House Report No. 2742), it was devoid of these radio mentions entirely. Meanwhile, WQQW's manager, Edward M. Brecher, one of drafters of Blue Book and an ex -aide to ex -FCC Chairman Fly, gets chance to prove his quite positive theories about broadcasting. He promises no more than 4 commercials per hour, each no longer than one minute, with stress on "good music, unbiased news, free speech," etc. Station lists 125 stockholders, none with over 4%.

www.americanradiohistory.com ANGELS FOR THE FMA: Upon shoulders of man selected as paid director of newly forming FM Association (candidates will be interviewed in Washington Wednesday) will devolve job not only of runner FMA but of raising funds to support it and its promotional activities. Contributions were requested this week in letters to radio manufacturers, engineers, attorneys -- station support to come from their $100 membership fees. With Maj. Armstrong and such. manufacturers as GE, REL, Stromberg- Carlson, Zenith already committed, FMA is expected to get good start after next Friday's organizational meeting in Washington's Hotel Statler. Everett Dillard's office, handling arrangements, reports some 150 acceptances from stations, some sending more than one delegate. Crosley has been added to list of FM set exhibitors (Vol. 2, No. 52), and Federal, GE, Graybar, REL, RCA, Westinghouse have all agreed to participate in symposium on transmitters.

PARAMOUNT'S NEXT MOVE: What Paramount will do about its DuMont stockholdings, involved in recent Los Angeles TV grants (Vol. 2, No. 51), may be made known in week or so. FCC says Paramount -DuMont must be considered as one unit under rule limiting TV grants to 5 to any single entity. Each already has 2 station grants, so one or the other is entitled to only one more.

When it became known this week that FCC had processed and was ready to act on remaining Paramount applications (Boston, Detroit) and DuMont's (Cleveland and Pittsburgh), Commission was asked to hold up any more grants until "interlock" situation is resolved. Appeal from FCC dictum is seen unlikely. Also ruled out is possibility DuMont might reorganize so as to divest Paramount of any policy control -- this in view of precedent in case of FM grant to WAPI, Birmingham, which FCC said must be counted as CBS station, even though CBS (holding 45% of stock) has no voting control whatsoever. So best bet seems to be Paramount will unload its DuMont stockholders, drop its 3 directors on DuMont board.

TELECASTING CONGRESS: "Incredibly good pictures, extremely poor programming" -- that about sizes up Friday's first telecast of opening of Congress (by CBS- DuMont- NBC in combination). Dull roll calls, duller commentaries, were not as conducive to viewer- interest as most news events, certainly not as interesting as swiftly - moving sports which are TV's forte. But, all in all, impression TV made among Washington brass who watched it (also in New York and other cities that saw it via coaxial and relay) was very much to good. President Truman, who will be televised as he addresses Congress Monday, along with White House staff watched spectacle on RCA 10 -in. table model installed that morning, and many took a look on similar set in Speaker Martin's office in Capitol. There was no pickup from Senate side because of lack of power facilities; moreover, Senate rules forbid picture taking. General feeling prevails that, however radio in general fares legislatively this session of Congress, TV is bound to be encouraged if not coddled by Congressmen deeply impressed by magic of video.

MORE POWER & MORE RADIO: "More Power for AM, FM & TV." Thus, January issue of new Caldwell -Clements monthly, Tele -Tech, heads powerful editorial espousing perennial cause favored by just about all engineers. There is no interference difficulty, it asserts, which cannot be remedied by more power at the transmitter -- "the answer to static, interference, and poor reception, all along the line." It may mean, also, a simpler receiving antenna -- or, for many services no antenna at all. Yet, it is pointed out, tendency of governmental authority is to hold back on power (limit in AM is 50 kw), even though abroad it is "viewed as a merit rather than a misdemeanor." Tele -Tech says there are over 100 broadcast stations abroad of 100 kw and higher, including England's 800 kw transmitter, 2 or 3 of same power in Russia, one of 2,500 kw in Russia. Editor O. H. Caldwell publishes his annual radio statistics in his new magazine, estimating 1946 revenue of 1,100 radio manufacturers at $350 million;

www.americanradiohistory.com distributors and dealers, $700 million; broadcasters, $380 million ($325 million

from time sales, $55 millions from talent costs) . Dr. Caldwell's estimate of 1946 broadcast income, incidentally, compares with $433 million estimated by NAB ($191 million, network; $117 million, national spot; $116 million, local; $9 million, regional network). Other end-of -1946 statistics: civilian radios manufactured, 14 million sold retail at $700 million; tubes, 170 million sold at $200 million; auto sets, 150,000 sold at $9 million; auto radios in use, 6 million; homes with radio sets, 35 million; total radios in U.S., 60 million.

FM CLASS A FREEZE DUE: Simply as a political gesture, since there seem to be plenty of channels, FCC next week will probably put on ice handful of Class A (Community) channels at upper end of FM band -- for same reason it reserved some wider- range Class B channels last July (Vol. 2, No. 29). New plan may freeze, for a year, 3 to 5 channels out of the 20 between 104.1 -107.9 me (Nos. 281 -300). Reservation, however, would be blanket one, differing from 1- out -of -5 Class B plan since there are no specific allocations of Class A frequencies to individual cities. As appli- dations stand now, there are plenty of Class A channels. Even with projected reservation, it looks like there are enough to go around at present even in such crowded areas at New York, Los Angeles, Chicago. Reservation is designed, as for Class B, to insure future availability to newcomers, especially veterans.

NEW LOG OF FM STATIONS: Our first Quarterly Log of FM Licensees, Grantees and Applicants (Supplement No. 47 herewith) should make it easy for you to determine the status of FM in any particular locality at any time -- that is, if you keep it up -to -date. This is a simple matter, for we will continue to report new grants as well as changes and corrections, as heretofore, on pink addenda sheets such as Supplement No. 47 -A herewith (which reports the grants, changes, etc. since we compiled Supplement No. 47). The consolidated log will be republished next April.

This 6 -part FM Directory, only one published anywhere, supersedes and amplifies our Supplements No 44, 44 -A, etc. It adds an up -to -date log of Educa- tional FM Licensees, CPs and Applicants; also Developmental Broadcast Licensees and CPs, most of whom use FM. Note that in listings of CPs, Conditionals and Applica- tions the FCC file numbers are given for convenient reference if more data is desired from FCC's public files. New applications will continue to be reported in detail in our "No. 14 series" of Supplements.

THE FMA GETS UNDER WAY: Full -page ad in Friday morning's Washington Post, telling public in pointed words to "make sure your new radio has FM," really set stage for that day's organizational meeting of new FM Association. Seven District of Colum- bia FM grantees joined to pay the $927 space bill, though only the Post's WINX -FM and Everett Dillard's WASH -FM are as yet on the air. It was prime example of kind of promotion FMA was being organized to stimulate -- and it sparked what turned out to be an intensely enthusiastic meeting, attended by more than 300 persons. Your trade press will tell you, in far more detail than our space permits, just what transpired. But these are the highlights and some impressions:

1. FMA starts functioning at once, with offices in Washington's Denrike Bldg. John N. (Bill) Bailey, onetime WLW promotion man, latterly an editor of Broadcasting Magazine, takes over Feb. 1 as managing director at $12,000 a year. Its directors are the 12 members of original Steering Committee formed at Chicago NAB convention (Vol. 2, No. 43). They elected, from among their own number, the following officers: Roy Hofheinz, KOPY, Houston, president; Everett Dillard, v.p.; Frank Gunther, REL, secy; Arthur Freed, Freed Radio Corp., treasurer. Hofheinz and Dillard are on executive committee, along with Wayne Coy, WINX -FM; Leonard Asch, WBCA, Schenectady; Russ David, GE. 2. Intense eagerness of attending amalgam of independent, AM- affiliated and newspaper FMers to get FM going -- particularly to get sets into hands of public and attract advertisers to their medium -- bodes well for increasing membership. More than 100 members are already in with their $100 fees, or pledged. Presi- dent Hofheinz says $50,000 initial budget is assured (including pledges from equip_ ment manufacturers), with $25,000 already at hand.

3. FMA got blessing of FM- plumping FCC, made plain by Chairman Denny's luncheon remarks. Also attending were all other commissioners, plus Senator John- son (Colo.) and Rep. Lea (Calif.). On the other hand, only a sprinkling of major

www.americanradiohistory.com AM broadcasters turned out. And Washington's aforesaid 7 advertising FMers, who intend to continue paid newspaper space, made no effort to hide their feelings about fact that city's other 3 FM grantees, all network keys, declined to join campaign.

4. FM receiver situation, as outlined by Stromberg- Carlson's Ray Manson, is pretty much as we reported it in Vol. 2, No. 50, and Vol. 3, No. 1 -- except that Dr. Manson now predicts 3 -4% million FM sets this year, at least 5 million in 1948. Soon, also, about 50% of all table models will have FM, he predicted, only handicap to such production thus far being fact scarce tuning units must be just as good as in big sets. All consoles henceforth will have FM, he said.

5. Speeches by Maxon's Preston Pumphrey (handling GE set advertising) and McCann -Erickson's Hugh D. Lavery (Stromberg) heartened delegates' hopes of early revenues from time sales, which all depends on "circulation" (sets). Write FMA for copies of their talks if this subject concerns you; they're well worth reading, especially Lavery's. Case histories of promotion, particularly dealer cooperation, and optimistic reports on transmitter prospects made it appear indeed as if Denny's prediction of more than 700 FM stations on the air by end of 1947 might come true.

6. Over -all impressions of well- organized though crowded one -day meeting (largely the work of Dillard's office and Counsel Leonard Marks): it was stimu- lating enough to augur surge of interest in FM; new association evoked too enthusiastic support to be ignored; FMA deserves whole- hearted support of receiver manufacturers (conspicuous by their absence though 9 had sets on display) who stand to profit most by what Maj. Armstrong called "our $100,000,000 business ".

And significantly, too, as at recent NAB convention, youth (and a lot of GI buttons) prediminated among the the many new faces FM is introducing to radio.

TBA WIDENS SCOPE, ELECTS: Little TBA's 50 members -- only 19 of them in "active" category, meaning they are actual or prospective TV operators and pay $1,000 membership fees -- are more pepped up than ever about television, have no intention of joining forces with NAB or anyone else, will go their own way until they've finished their self- appointed job of "creating an industry." That's the reaction that came out of annual meeting in New York Tuesday, where modus operandi for year was discussed, a code for telecasters suggested, plans laid for widened service to affiliate members (manufacturers, ad agencies, producers, etc.). Notably, since set production can now be counted, it's proposed to keep track of where sets are going so that markets can be gauged; also to maintain advisory liaison with TV Servicing setups, etc. New affiliates' executive committee is headed by Ernest Marks (DuMont). WOR's Jack Poppele was reelected president. Others elected: v.p., G. Emerson Markham (GE); secretary, Will Baltin; treasurer, Paul Raibourn (Para- mount); new directors, John Royal (NBC) and Frank Schreiber (WGN). Holdover board - men are: Allen B. DuMont, F. J. Bingley (Philco); Curtis W. Mason (KFI); Ernest H. Vogel (Farnsworth).

LISTENERS IN A HURRY: Pilot model of a table -model radio with FM high -band only (no AM) was shown FMA groups in Washington Friday, exciting lots of interest among FMers eager to get audiences in a hurry. It has 7 acorn tubes, rectifier, 5 -inch speaker, plastic cabinet, is designed, to sell around $30. Plan is to let FM broadcasters be distributors, or to arrange for local dealers, especially in areas where FM stations may dominate -- communities with no AM stations, for example. Manu- facturing company, Electronics Inc., Bowen Bldg., Washington, is being promoted by M. A. O'Connor, ex- Bendix engineer, and N. D. Klitenick, ex- Signal Corps, et al. FMA sessions attracted exhibits of FM console- combinations by Freed, GE, Scott, Westinghouse, Hallicrafters, Crosley, RCA, Stromberg, Zenith -- latter two also Showing table models. Announced, but not exhibited, was crystal -controlled FM -only table model, to cost $100 -$150, promised by American Quartz Labs, Yonkers, N.Y. Principals are Anton Chmela and William Maron, latter also heading FM station WPOE, Elizabeth, N.J.

AM APPLICATION 'FREEZE': FCC revamp of AM engineering procedure for applicants, is- Sued Thursday, evoked bravos from consulting engineers, most of whom felt move "Sound" and "long- needed." Fundamentally, the plan (issued as Public Notice 2421; we'll get a copy for you if desired) enlists aid of consultants in preparing master channel surveys for all AM applicants desiring same channel. In this way, FCC believes it can lick AM application load involving "complicated engineering problems" -- 188 as of end of 1946. In order to effectuate plan, Commission said AM applications filed between Feb. 7 and May 1 would not be processed until after latter date.

POLITICAL WATERS CALM: As yet, lots of scuttlebutt, little or no action, on the political Scene so far as it affects radio. Talk about investigations is mainly fair weather comment right now -- neither Senator White nor Rep. Wolverton, as chairmen of key committees, expressing any inclination to that end. Senator Tobey hasn't come up yet with his bill to probe FCC's high -band FM allocations, but Rep. Lemke (N.D.) has introduced resolution to restore portion of 50 me band because high - band "deprives farmers and rural residents of benefits of FM radio." Lemke also said he contemplates bill to drive "slush" from air -- what he calls "stuff that debauches the youth of the nation." Even GOP Chairman Reece, who for political effect threatened lots of dire things before the elections, now says "no witch hunt" is planned "unless something rotten is found." GOP wants to capture control of what he calls Congressional com- missions, like FCC, and to that end Senators White and Brewster, of Maine, called on President Truman Tuesday to_ ask him to appoint Miss Marion E. Martin, of Maine, to FCC vacancy. Law prescribes not more than 4 commissioners from same party; FCC now has 3 Democrats (Chairman Denny, Walker, Durr), 2 Republicans (Wakefield, Hyde), one Independent (Jett). Miss Martin seems likely to get the job. Senator White tells us he will be "greatly disappointed" if she doesn't. She would be first woman commissioner. Fortyish, a true New England conservative, she is distinctly a career woman, who enjoys high regard in government circles. She's from Bangor, served in State Legis- lature before coming to Washington in 1937 to become assistant chairman of the Republican National Committe and director of its Women's Division. She is still Maine's National Comimtteewoman, was first suggested by Guy Gannett, Portland pub- lisher and radio station owner. Other reported candidates: ex- Senator Mead of New York, Democrat; Thad Brown Jr., attorney, son of late FCC commissioner, Republican.

BRITAIN'S EMI AND FM -TV: Sir Ernest Fisk, managing director of Britain's big EMI (Electric & Musical Industries Ltd.), this week signed patent contract in New York with Maj. Armstrong, covering rights for whole British Empire. And Maj. Armstrong released full list of domestic set -making licensees as follows: Airadio, Ansley, Browning, Espey, Fada, Freed, Garod, GE, Hallicrafters, Howard, Magnavox, Maguire, Minerva, Pilot, Scott, Stewart -Warner, Stromberg- Carlson, Templetone, Westinghouse, Zenith. (Sir Ernest, incidentally, also reported he foresaw neither high definition nor color TV in England at any early date; "ancillary" technical problems, he said, mean color TV is "a number of years away. ")

AM ON VHF A 'DEAD HORSE': What he calls "HiFAM," or AM broadcasting in the vhf band, almost unanimously considered a "dead horse" in radio industry, is still being per- sistently ridden by Sarkes Tarzian, engineer and components manufacturer of Bloom- ington, Ind. Having experimented with system for last half year over his developmental W9XHZ, Tarzian now asks FCC for commercial license. He also wants portion

www.americanradiohistory.com of FM band set aside for it, claiming such advantages over FM as spectrum economy, ease of standard receiver conversion, inexpensive sets.

Top engineers here say Tarzian is about "10 years behind the times," that hiS System was investigated and rightly discarded in favor of FM years ago. But he keeps plugging, cites even Crosley's engineering v.p., L. M. Clement, as saying he believes FCC will eventually approve "HiFAM" for local coverage. From where we Sit, it doesn't look as though system has ghost of a chance.

www.americanradiohistory.com ADDITIONS TO TV RANKS: Two more TV grants in California this week -- one to ABC, San Francisco (KGO), the other to E. F. Peffer, KGDM, Stockton -- just about complete Pacific Coast complement of low -band commercial TVs, save for unsettled Don Lee applications (Vol. 2, No. 51). Score for country now is 49 CPs issued for new black- and -white stations, 18 still pending -- including new application for Detroit just filed by Fort Industry Co. (New revised log will be issued shortly to super- sede Supplement No. 18A.) Thursday, also, FCC issued STA to Paramount's Television Productions Inc. to permit its experimental W6XYZ to go commercial, making it Pacific Coast's first TV station accepting sponsors. It was assigned call letters KTLA. Immediately, Manager Klaus Landsburg reported big "kickoff program" Jan. 22, with Bob Hope and Cecil B. DeMille, among others, taking part -- sponsored by local Lincoln dealer. Rate card has been published, he said, and long list of sponsors is in prospect, all ready to buy favorable periods now (though city has only 500 -600 receivers) against day when Hollywood "inevitably becomes the country's greatest television center." Don Lee TV applications are held up pending Comr. Hyde's hearings in Los Angeles, Jan. 14, on alleged infringements of network rules -- though meanwhile its pioneer experimental W6XAO, Los Angeles, continues on Channel No. 2 and there's no competition for channel it seeks in San Francisco. Company doesn't seem too con- cerned about meeting charges, nor missing out on TV, for it announced plans just the other day to break ground soon for new $2,500,000 Hollywood AM -FM -TV studio center. ABC's San Francisco grant is its fourth (the others: Chicago, Detroit, Los Angeles). It got Channel No. 7 (174 -180 mc), 5.4 kw visual power, 2.7 kw aural power, 1,281 ft antenna height. Peffer's Stockton assignment is Channel No. 8 (180 -186 mc), with 1.93 kw visual power, 1.8 kw aural power, 337 ft antenna height.

George B. Storer's Fort Industry Co., operator of string of broadcast stations (Supplement No. 26) and proposing to purchase AM outlet WJBK, Detroit, applied for TV there this week even as Detroit News' WWDT was sweating out arrival of last bits of equipment to enable it to start telecasting. Only other applicant is Paramount's United Detroit Theatres, which awaits clearing up of Paramount -DuMont Situation (Vol. 3, No. 1). Storer also holds CP for TV in Toledo, for which RCA equipment has been ordered. In Detroit, he seeks Channel No. 2, proposes studio and transmitter at northwest corner of Woodward & Kirby Sts., 497 -ft antenna, $229,000 expenditure on plant exclusive of land and building, $35,000 monthly operating cost. Storer's enthusiasm for TV led his WGBS, Miami, to Sponsor DuMont traveling unit at recent exposition there, and it won't be surprising if application is soon filed for Miami also. Miami is entitled to 4 channels, has no applicants.

FM SCARCITY AND OVERLAP: FCC has taken steps to meet two problems, plaguing FM: (1) applications for FM stations in cities where all assigned channels have been granted or in cities where no channels have been assigned, (2) overlap of stations having common ownership. From now on, when an applicant wants to apply for a city where no channels are available, he will be permitted to specify a frequency -- even though it may be assigned (but still available) to another city. Example of plan in action is Baltimore, or Atlanta (Vol. 2, No. 41, 42). Announced by FCC Chairman Denny at FMA meeting, new policy gives fair warning to prospective applicants from "channel_ rich" cities to get busy, or else! No over -all reshuffling of FM allocation plan (Supplement No. 43) is contemplated and new procedure will not apply for benefit of large metropolitan cities, like New York, etc. Overlap in AM FM and TV has been bugaboo for some time now (for FM, see Vol. 2, No. 37; for TV, Vol. 2, No. 47), so FCC has ordered oral argument on whole question Feb. 7, in Washington. Issue is interpretation of multiple ownership rules. Among the 22 applicants made parties to proceedings are Yankee, applying for FM in Boston, Bridgeport, Providence; Crosley, Seeking TV in Dayton, O.

www.americanradiohistory.com 'TELEVISIONARIES' AGAIN: Zenith's Gene McDonald isn't the only one who thinks TV will "price" itself out of advertiser support (Vol. 2, No. 25). Hearst promotion executive Robert D. Levitt, writing in Jan. 3 Tide, also takes dim view of TV's future. He pegs pessimistic outlook on deduction that public won't accept video that's less than movie -like in scope and quality, and TV can't begin to compete with techniques and resources of films.

Much the same tack was taken in Chicago Journal of Commerce editorial Dec. 31, titled with word coined by Comdr. McDonald, "Televisionaries." It quoted McDonald liberally on "economic unsoundness" of TV -- its programs must be good, good entertainment is expensive; ergo, TV can't give it away, as does radio.

As for Zenith's policy toward TV, somewhat confused by testimony of its representative at FCC's color TV hearing, Comdr. McDonald isn't saying his company will never manufacture TV sets (Vol. 2, No. 50). This is his attitude: "I have for some time said that television, whether black and white, or color, is technically acceptable but economically unsound...we will not build black and white or color television until we feel that the public can get their money's worth in entertainment after having made an investment in one of our television receivers.

P.S. Meanwhile, more and more manufacturers are going into TV set production (Vol. 3, No. 1). Meanwhile, too, such excellent job of telecasting (especially camera handling) of such notable public event as President Truman addressing Congress last Monday, let alone regular sportscasts, still cause many a guest viewer to ask, over and over again: "Where and when can I get a television set ?"

CANADIANS HIT 8 -YEAR FM PLAN: Something of a tempest was stirred up between Cana- dian Broadcasting Corp (government) and Canadian Assn. of Broadcasters (private) when former advanced this proposal: "If FM acceptance and set ownership develop satisfactorily, private commercial stations may, in the general interests of broadcasting in Canada, be required to use FM only, on three years notice, and in any case not before April 1, 1955." This and other points in CBC's proposals regarding FM instantly drew strong objections from CAB to "any suggestion" that private broadcasters will eventually not be permitted to use AM frequencies. Aside from seeming "plot" of government - owned CBC (which also regulates Canadian radio) eventually to relegate private broadcasting to FM channels entirely, CAB saw incentives to AM improvement adversely affected, credit status of existing AM operators hurt. Unless CBC alters stand, you will be hearing more about this impasse. Meanwhile, CBC reports it is spending $250,000 to promote FM by building 6 stations in as many places. But Canada's RMA put damper on prospects by predicting only 20 000 out of Dominion -produced 600,000 radios during first half of 1947 will have FM bands -- none among what Canadians call "mantel" models, which constitute bulk of production.

FEDERAL TO MAKE TV SETS: Another big -name manufacturer going into TV receiver production is IT &T's Federal Telephone & Radio Corp., hitherto identified with radio transmitters of all kinds -- including color TV transmitter it custom -built for CBS. Whether it's to be low -band black- and -white or uhf color (which it favors), Federal proposes to sell sets by end of this year. Prototypes of low -band sets are now being made, should be ready by March when line will be decided upon. Company aims at full -scale production during last quarter. Not very widely known is fact Federal already makes AM receivers, is turning out 2 table models ($30 and $40 selling price) at rate of about 500 per day, has made 50,000 so far. Its 1947 production schedule calls for 385,000 units, including AM -FM consoles (around $375). Also planning TV set production before end of this year, is Stromberg- Carlson -- but it does not contemplate reinstating application for station in Rochester, dropped last year.

AUTHORITATIVE NEWS SERVICE OF THE VISUAL BROADCASTING AND FREQUENCY MODULATION ¡Orit ARTS AND INDUSTRY and FM Reports

6, D.C. TELEPHONE MICHIGAN 2020 VOL. 3, NO. 3 POLISHED WEEKLY BY RADIO NEWS BUREAU, 1519 CONNECTICUT AVE. KW., WASHINGTON January 18, 1947

FM STATIONS AND MARKETS: Actually, though practically none is up to full power rating as yet, there are already 142 FM stations on the air in nearly 100 cities -- 25 of them still operating on old (low) and new (high) frequency bands simultane- ously, 2 on low -band only, the remainder on high -band -- most under STAB. You will find them indicated in our FM Directory (Supplement No. 47) sent you last week, to which you should make the several corrections noted in Special Supplement herewith plus additions indicated in Supplement No. 47B herewith.

All but 3 licensees (out of 48) listed in Part I of our FM Directory (WBAM, New York; WEHS, Chicago; WSM -FM, Nashville) are operating on schedules; former is conducting wave tests and latter 2 are currently silent pending equipment changes. It should be noted also that, in addition to many CP holders already programming (Part II), FCC has authorized some conditionals (Part, III) to 'operate under STAB -- on channels and powers considered temporary until CPs are issued. Surprisingly large number of FM stations now on air indicates real markets already exist for FM sets -- markets toward which manufacturers can "channel" their output with assured cooperation from "circulation- hungry" stations. How one of most important set makers views this market, was manifested in letter just sent his dealers: "Whether or not you as yet have an FM station in your area," he wrote, "public is demanding FM and it will Shortly be difficult to sell any radio (except in lower price brackets, or portables) which does not incorporate FM." Then he cautions that the "sleigh ride" is over, the seller's market rapidly changing into a buyer's market, and that dealers must give public what it wants [brand names with FM] -- or else. He ends quoting Ladies Home Journal as authority that "710 makers of radios -- some of them great names -- have passed out of existence."

TV GRANTS NOW TOTAL 51: New Orleans' big Maison Blanche Co., department store which shares ownership of WSMB and WSMB -FM with Paramount, got its long- sought TV grant Thursday -- first in city, second to department store (other one being to Indian- apolis' William H. Block Co. (Vol. 2, No. 41). It thus beat still -undecided Times - Picayune to the punch, though newspaper has been planning to file for one of city's other 4 available channels. Same day, FCC granted DuMont its third station -- in Pittsburgh -- and announced it had retired to pending files DuMont's Cincinnati and Cleveland applications; also those in Boston, Detroit and Dallas in which Paramount holds interests. This was done because it has ruled (Vol. 2, No. 51) that DuMont -Paramount must be considered one entity under multiple ownership rule in view of latter's stockholdings in former. Maison Blanche grant, in which Paramount has no interest whatever, calls for Channel No. 4 (66 -72 mc), 13.6 kw visual power, 7.2 kw aural, 375 ft antenna. DuMont Pittsburgh grant calls for Channel No. 3 (60 -66 mc), 14.6 kw visual power, 7.3 aural, 818 ft antenna. Grants now total 51, only 17 applications pending. This week, another application for low -band TV was filed -- by newly formed

www.americanradiohistory.com Southern Radio & Television Equipment Co., DuPont Bldg., Miami, seeking Channel No. 4, proposing transmitter and studio in El Comodoro Hotel, estimating $163,550 plant cost. Principals are Robert G. Venn, ex- manager of Storer -owned WGBS, Miami; Edward N. Claughton, ex- Atlanta banker (who is backing the project to tune of $164,000); E. J. Nelson, attorney. This is third new TV filed since our Supplement No. 18A -- other 2 being Milwaukee Journal (Vol. 2, No. 50) and Fort Industry, for Detroit (Vol. 3, No. 2). Revised Supplement No 18A will be sent you shortly.

Only justification we can discern for recurring rumor DuMont may sell out telecasting_ interests and concern itself only with receiver and tube production, is speculation growing out of more -than -likely Paramount- DuMont divorcement. DuMont denies rumors, of course, but it looks as though Paramount will soon divest itself of its holdings in DuMont: 42,200 Class A shares (out of 1,471,040), 560,000 Class B (entire issue), 3 directors (out of 8). Each seeking limit of 5 TV stations of its own, both would prefer to go own way. Paramount is not disposed to appeal ruling on multiple ownership in Los Angeles decision, nor to ask rule be relaxed. Its executives have been huddling on what to do next, with prospect plain it will unload stock (Vol. 3, No. 1). Rather than throw it on market, though, with result- ant upset in values, stock may be sold to one buyer -- some big single investor interested in TV, possibly an existing broadcasting company.

BIG RADIO STATION DEALS: First big radio station deal of 1947 finds ubiquitous broker Smith Davis (Smith Davis & Co., Cleveland) steering meeting -of -minds whereby control of WDSU, New Orleans ABC outlet, will be sold to New York investment group headed by William I. Spiegelberg, 30 Broad St., FCC permitting. Agreed valuation is $750,000, Partners E. A. Stephens and B. G. Wall selling out their 770 interest, Manager Fred Weber retaining his 22'1/2 %. Another big pending deal, Stanley Hubbard's proposed purchase of remaining 7570 of St. Paul's KSTP for $825,000, with option to sell same to Avco (WLW -WINS) for $1,300,000 after 6 months and with Avco doing financing (Vol. 2, No. 39), has hit stormy going. Local group headed by Bill Johns, former manager of Ridder newspapers in St. Paul, has entered competing bid. Case has stirred up intense feeling in Twin Cities, will be resolved by FCC.

FM CHANNEL -SHIFT POLICY: FCC this week gave Atlanta 2 additional channels -- No. 224 and 231 -- thus carrying out announced policy of reallocating channels from communities where they are not wanted to communities where they are wanted (Vol 3, No. 2). No. 224 was taken away from Griffin, Ga., which has no FM applicant and was deemed capable of being served by Class A stations anyhow. Atlanta area was entitled to 5 channels under original allocations. One was assigned Atlanta Con- stitution and another reserved. With 5 applicants for now remaining 5 channels, FCC can satisfy all -- and April 7 hearing will be cancelled unless there are other applicants. Same situation obtains in Baltimore, but Commission hesitates to take channels away from large communities like Harrisburg and York, Pa., as requested -- so Feb. 3 hearing will be held. Note: Correct your FM Allocation Table (Supplement No. 43) by adding No. 224 and 231 to Atlanta, deleting 224 from Griffin.

SATELLITE TVs AND Fils? More than just overlap may come up at FCC's Feb. 7 hearing on interpretation of multiple ownership rule (Vol. 3, No. 2). Commission has already been informally advised question of satellite TV and FM stations will be brought up -- whether one station can pick up signals of another and simply re- broadcast them. FCC staffers say question isn't on agenda, but admit it might properly belong there. There's also hope expressed Commission will widen inquiry to look into limitation -of- stations rule (only 6 -to -a- customer in FM, 5 in TV) but it's indicated this won't be considered at this hearing, would require hearing of its own which hasn't been asked for. So far, only Yankee Network has filed appear- ance, deadline for which is Jan. 27. About week before hearing, Commission hopes to have 50 -page exhibit showing all overlap problems available to those interested.

Clark Associates Inc. (WNBF -FM) WNBF (Binghamton, nnÌ71TT1}'Ti7R n Cani tp,www.americanradiohistory.com R .idi n Tnn BUT WHAT DOES CAESAR SAY? No huddles yet between networks and AFM locals in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, on contracts expiring Jan. 31 -- but hope still rides high Petrillo may relax edict against AM -FM duplication of live musical programs (Vol. 3, No. 1). Networks are as non -committal as Petrillo about pending negotiations, which of course encompass much more than FM problem. Pioneer WTMJ -FM's Walter Damm revived hopes Petrillo may relent when at NAB small stations meeting in San Francisco last week he said he thought "AFM would shortly permit stations to duplicate provided no extra charge is made for FM service." Asked for further comment, Damm wired us: "My belief is based on what I would do if I were in other fellow's position. When I finally became convinced that duplicated AM -FM operation did not entail any additional revenues nor require any additional talent, but merely improved a station's service to public; and further- more when I realized that if there are going to be from 900 to 2,000 independent FM stations who will have to use additional music -- then I would figure it was time to permit duplication on AM and FM, provided there wasn't any extra charge made for the FM service."

MORE VIPs SEEKING FM: Behind routine FM grants, etc., reported in Supplement No. 47B herewith and in last week's Supplement No. 47A, are some interesting facts -- aside from mounting box -score showing 461 CPs, 197 conditionals to date. There's fact that Shreveport Times' KWKH, one of seven 50 kw AMs not yet in for FM (Vol. 2, No. 52) has at last applied; same outfit owns KTHS, Hot Springs, seeking to move into Memphis area, also asking for FM. It's reliably reported, too, that 50 kw KWBU, Corpus Christi, and WLAC, Nashville, will shortly file for FM.

First application yet to come from South Dakota has been filed by Tri -State Broadcasting Co., Sioux Falls, promoted by Myron J. Bennett, ex -KWK, St. Louis. This leaves Montana only State without an FM grant or application. Then there's. pioneer WNBF -FM, Binghamton, N.Y., seeking an FM also in Buffalo. And another new FM -AM application, chockful of VIPs, is that of Capital Radio Inc., Columbus, 0. Stockholders include ex -Gov., now U.S. Senator John W. Bricker; United Press' S. L. Keller; Bennett Larson, WPEN, Philadelphia; Austin V. Wood, Wheeling (W. Va.) Intel - ligencer; John W. Galbreath, Columbus real estate man, president.

VIDEO VS. NEWSREELS: Tuesday afternoon's unscheduled telecast by DuMont of inves- titure of Right Rev. Henry Knox Sherrill in Washington's famed Cathedral (great event in religious world, for he's now presiding bishop of Protestant Episcopal Church in U. S.) was prime example of TV's ability to cover special events on quick notice. But more particularly, it pointed up intense rivalry developing between newsreel and video cameramen for best positions at big news events -- a struggle not unlike that of newspaper -radio reporters of not so long ago. Bitterness simmered at recent Congress telecasts, is now on verge of boiling over.

U.S. Rubber Co. footed bill for several -hour telecast, carried on WTTG, Washington, and WABD, New York. TV- enthusiast Charles Durban, company's TV chief, Sent Henry Mackey to handle details -- along with 2 video camera crews and equipment, one rushed down overnight after prizefight job in New York. Pickup was radio -relayed from Cathedral Heights to downtown transmitter, thence also on coaxial. Images were well -nigh perfect. Camera handling was especially good, won- derful effect being achieved during 2 minutes of silent prayer while camera tilted to altar, then slowly upward. "Commercial" was mere insignia of U.S. Rubber at beginning and end. Video pitched in to defray cost of lighting setup, yet rivalry in jockeying for camera positions led newsreel ,then (always notorious for brashness) to threaten at one juncture to pull out altogether, taking special lighting with them. "We told them to go ahead," said Mackey. "We didn't need their lights. We were using Image Orthicons." High churchmen had invited U.S. Rubber to do the telecast, deeply impressed by fine job done Christmas Eve from New York's Grace Church.

www.americanradiohistory.com STILL MORE TV SET MAKERS: Thus far we've reported on 6 radio manufacturers not now producing TV sets, who say they plan to make them before end of year -- Philco (Vol. 2, No. 48); Crosley, Admiral, Stewart -Warner (Vol. 3, No. 1); Federal, Stromberg- Carlson (Vol. 3, No. 2). To these you can add Andrea, Emerson, Fada, only others who have as yet replied to our questionnaire. Andrea plans console with AM -FM at about $750, with AM -FM- record changer at about $950, table models at undetermined price; production schedule starts May 15, calls for 10,000 sets, with dealer showings by March 1. Emerson says we most certainly plan to produce television sets this year in both console and table model forms" but can't give details aS yet. Fada's President J. M. Marks says he plans 2,500 production of table model set to sell at $250 up, gives no other details.

HOW TV STATIONS LINE UP: Our up- to- the -minute log of TV (Supplement No. 18 -B herewith) Shows 6 licensees, 51 CP holders (2 already operating commercially under STA ), 16 pending applications. It ,includes the CP re- granted Milwaukee Journal Thursday, covering Channel No. 3 (60 -66 mc), 16.1 visual power, 17 kw aural, 319 ft antenna. It also deletes Zenith's CP for Chicago, which expired Jan. 9 and which FCC, not having heard from Zenith and recalling its official attitude toward low - band TV (Vol. 2, No. 50), automatically dropped without even making fact public. Supplement No. 18 -B also includes various individual assignment changes, which FCC has not been announcing. It has been checked thoroughly with FCC files.

PETRILLO INCLUDES FM OUT: Networks and Petrillo reached accord Friday on extension of contracts for another year after Jan. 31 -- but matter of proscribed AM -FM duplication of programs using live musicians was held in abeyance pending Supreme Court ruling on Lea Act (Vol. 2, No. 49). Petrillo said he would then "consider" FM question, about which he has been reported tempering his views (Vol. 3, No. 1, 3). In network accord, present hours and working conditions are continued another year; negotiations were restricted to wage increases, which must yet be contracted with AFM locals in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles. It was said two -day parley of network negotiators with AFM chief was "harmonious" throughout.

TV, RUMORS AND FACTS: Rumors and more rumors -- TV circles are literally buzzing with them these days. Latest, that FCC has already made up mind in favor of CBS's color standards, subject of hearings resuming in New York's Federal Courthouse Mon - day, has no basis in fact, so far as we can discern. One high Commission source angrily called it "a lot of hogwash," adding: "If I were asked today for my deci- Sion, I would not be able to say one way or the other." Rumor that RCA -NBC threatens "strike" against TV if FCC rules for uhf color now, got so rife that both FCC Chairman Denny and Gen. Sarnoff had to take cog- nizance. Said Denny: "There is absolutely no truth whatsoever to the report that Gen. Sarnoff of RCA has made any statement to the Commission on the subject of color television. I don't know how rumor got started, but it is utterly without basis." Sarnoff also denied saying anything of sort, adding: "This is not a contro- versy between any two rival companies, but represents a fundamental difference of technical opinion as to what is best in the public interest between one company that has been doing work with mechanical color and the major companies of the industry working on the development of television who are interested in advancing it as a new art and industry." And, as if to belie any such policy on RCA's part, the ad manager of RCA Victor Home Instruments Division, J. David Cathcart, told Wash- ington ad club Tuesday: "If FCC approves color TV, and if people want color TV Sets, we'll make them. We're in business to make and sell things people want." Agenda for Jan. 27 -28 hearing sessions in New York includes (1) CBS demonstration, (2) cross examination by other principals, (3) DuMont demonstration, (4) cross examination. On Jan. 29, hearing moves to Princeton (Penn's Neck Community

www.americanradiohistory.com Club) where RCA will put on its own color demonstration again (Vol. 2, No. 44) and where Philco is expected to present "flicker" demonstration. FCC engineers have Slides of Washington scenes (with large white, areas) for telecasts by all demon - Strators. Dr. DuMont has suggested to Commission that CBS be instructed to run black - and -white movie over its color system, also to show color pickup of Madison Square Garden fights.

Comr. Durr's absence from New York -Princeton hearing has no "significance" -- except personal; the 48- year -old father of 3 daughters (oldest 19) expects to become a father again any day now.

To rumor stories that DuMont may get out of telecasting field, even selling WABD, Dr. DuMont has entered vehement denial. "Any thoughts along this line have never been in my mind," he tells us, "nor have I ever heard them expressed by any company official." Rumors doubtless grew out of fact WABD shut down Friday for month (but only to revamp antenna system); that DuMont has been operating at loss

(as who isn't in TV?) ; that set and tube factory in Passaic has laid off numerous em- ployes (true); that Paramount may dispose of its DuMont stock (see Vol. 3, No. 3). As to latter, Paramount's Paul Raibourn says, "We have had no offers which would warrant us disposing of it." In view of FCC's policy of regarding DuMont- Paramount as one entity, due to latter's stockholdings, common sense would seem to dictate "wait and see" attitude on part of Paramount, pending outcome of color TV hearing. In meantime, it isn't doing anything about still -pending applications for TV stations for its subsidiaries in Boston, Detroit, Dallas (Supplement No. 18 -B).

RECORD RADIO SET OUTPUT: December's record FM receiving_set production of 40,903, highest for year by far, is taken in trade as indicating continuing upsurge henceforth. Final month of 1947 brought forth 40,903 sets -- 35,832 radio -phonograph consoles, 4,088 table models, 983 AM -FM consoles. For whole of year, sets with FM totaled 181,485 -- 125,729 radio -phonographs, 40,033 consoles, 13,196 table models, 2,527 converters. (For other monthly figures, see Vol. 2, No. 47, 51; Vol. 3, No. 1.) Whole set manufacturing industry is now running at 20- million -a -year rate, RMA Says. Overall set production for 1946 was highest ever -- more than 15 million, compared to pre -war (1941) record of 13,642,334. This includes non -RMA production. RMA members produced 13,326,985 sets during 1946 -- 77% table models, only 7% consoles (due to wood shortage). Dept. of Commerce, forecasting more materials and all -time high 1947 production, says one -third of all sets made in last 3 months this year will have FM. And whereas Stromberg -Carlson's Ray Manson has predicted 3 -4% million FM sets this year (Vol. 3, No. 2), RMA's President Cosgrove (Crosley) said in New York Friday that 16% of 1947 sets will have FM. Mr. Cosgrove foresaw 2 million sets with FM this year, half of them table models, some as low as $50.

RMA's year -end report, showing a mere. 6,476 TV sets produced in 1946, doesn't jibe with figures reported by 2 of the currently big TV makers -- RCA and Viewtone. RCA Victor's George Beers, at color TV hearing in Washington recently, Said his company had produced 2,950 units up to Dec. 1, expected to end year with 8,000 sets (Vol. 2, No. 50). Viewtone reported it sold 3,000 sets up to mid - December, was geared for 200 -per -week production (Vol. 2, No. 51). Where discrep- ancy lies, no one seems to know. RMA officials say their figures include reports from both RCA and Viewtone. Breakdown of 1946 TV production shows 5,070 TV table models, 1,354 TV -only consoles, 52 TV -radio consoles. For December, RMA reported double TV output over previous month -- 3,561 vs 1,884. This included 3,171 table models, 361 TV -only consoles, 29 TV -radio consoles. RCA has estimated its own 1947 production at 160,000 sets. Viewtone tells us it expects to produce 12,000 sets this year: its table model "Futura" selling at $225, console "Adventurer" (with AM) at $279.95, console "Aristocrat" (with AM- phonograph) at $325 -- all plus installation charge.

www.americanradiohistory.com Kane says biggest bottleneck in TV is lack of qualified installation and service personnel. On the other hand, RMA's President R. C. Cosgrove, estimating industry as whole will turn out 300,000 TV sets this year, says big problem is cheaper sets. "Until we turn out a good set for $150, we won't get profitable volume," he said.

GE AND OTHER TV SET MAKERS: First pf General Electric's long- promised line of TV sets should be on display well ahead of mid -March when company's agency (Maxon) breaks with color ads in Life and Satevepost, to be followed by newspaper ads in TV- serviced cities. First model to be shown will be No. 801, now in production at Bridgeport plant, from which it will move to distributors between Feb. 1 and 15. It is console with 10 -in tube and AM. Company says price is still undetermined and release of production figures is "against company policy." But trade journal "Retailing Home Furnishings" reports price at $495, says 500 sets already produced, and adds that production will run at rate of 500 per week after Feb. 1.

GE also reports its Model 802, looking just like 801 but containing high -band FM, automatic phonograph and electronic reproducer, will be ready by mid -year; also that Model 901, with either 16x22 in. or 18x24 in. projection screen, plus Musi- phonic AM, two -band FM, phonograph, shortwave, variable inductance tuner, should be coming along after that. No plans for table models are stated. (Note that 802 has only one-band FM, whereas 901 has two -band.)

To the dozen or so companies we've reported in recent issues as advising us, in reply to questionnaires, that they intend going into TV set production this year (Vol., 2, No. 49, 50; Vol. 3, No. 1, 2, 3), add Garod, Motorola, Sparton, West- inghouse. Garod Says it will make consoles with 10 in. tube and AM, to sell around $500. Motorola (Galvin) has a console in works, plans table model also, both to be ready this spring. Sparton (Sparks -Withington) says it will have table model in May, gives no other information. Westinghouse says "count us in on the television deal by all means...probably table and also console models," but it offers no further dope. Then, it's reported that relatively obscure Bowers Battery & Spark Plug Co., Reading, Pa., showed a 6 in. tube TV set at State Farm Show in Harrisburg last week, to retail at $250, and promised console combination later at $1,500.

Indicating high manufacturer interest in TV market were TV sets exhibited at Chicago Furniture Mart, which closed Wednesday. Ten exhibited -- GE, Stewart -Warner, Crosley, RCA, Farnsworth, Admiral, Bendix, Motorola, Emerson, Howard (dummy cabinet with AM- phonograph), plus Stromberg- Carlson (private showing).

CLASS A LAYAWAY PLAN: Nobody seems much excited by FCC's proposed Class A (Commu- nity) channel reservation plan for FM (Vol. 3, No. 1). So proposal to withhold from assignment Channels No. 297 to 300 (107.3 to 107.9 mc) until next July 1, same date freeze ends for Class B, probably will go into effect soon after objection- deadline date, Jan. 31. Four withheld channels are one -fifth of Class A total (see Sec. 3.203(b) of FM Rules; Supplement No.39).

Class A grantees up to now have been relatively few (Supplement No. 47, et seq). Currently, says FCC, every qualified Class A applicant is getting a channel. However, New York and Los Angeles areas are tightening up fast, and Boston and Chi- cago are seen getting crowded eventually, too. Basic idea of plan is to increase assurance each satellite town gets a station rather than one hogging several.

Meanwhile, Class B applicants in San Diego and Springfield, Mass. (as in Atlanta and Baltimore; see Vol. 3, No. 3), anxious to avoid or ease hearing competition, have asked FCC to let them show how more channels can be squeezed in.

CPs, conditionals, STAs and applications continue to issue at fair clip. Week's totals are: 10 CPs, 2 conditionals, 5 STAB, 5 applications (Supplement No. 47 -C herewith). Speaking of CPs, new facilities recently assigned WMC -FM, Memphis, involve highest power to date: 515 kw, 620 ft. And unsubstantiated as yet is report that another applicant plans to radiate 600 kw with 12 -bay antenna.

www.americanradiohistory.com FMs PLAN SHARED TOWER: First plan of its kind, to our knowledge, is proposal of KXYZ -FM and KTRH -FM, Houston, to install both their 8 -bay GE antennas on single supporting structure. Considering KXYZ's 130 -ft auxiliary AM radiator atop 428 -ft Gulf Bldg. (city's tallest) as ideal, stations plan to alternate bays, facing them in opposite directions. GE engineers believe plan feasible, are now experimenting with setup. Joint use of single supporting structure is generally frowned upon by consulting engineers because cost of preventing intermodulation may largely cancel savings -- unless site is obviously only decent one in area. Further, competitors are seldom happy sharing ownership or use of equipment. CAA, of course, likes idea -- even more than bunching a city's FM antennas in one area as a number of grantees are doing, notably in Los Angeles and Syracuse.
