To some extent, this is true. However there is a good deal of material which simply presents life as I have seen it, from the 1930’s to the present, and is likely to be of interest to many of you who are less concerned with the more esoteric aspects of the television broadcast business. I hope you will also find my story to be of interest and value to you. Please note that this is a work in progress, perhaps three fourths finished. If it is not wholly complete, then why publish or present it to others? Well, after 60 years as a Broadcast Engineer and now in my upper 80’s it seems wise to do so as who knows if there will be time for me to finish it, and I feel it is of adequate significance to have it dis- seminated. Others may have seen these events differently - my story is accurate insofar as I remember the events - and this narrative is simply the way it all appeared to me. In the document I have mentioned names of a few of the fine individuals I have been fortunate to work and associ- ate with. I know I have omitted the names of a great many folks. It is not that they are of lesser import, rather that the ones I referred to by name are simply those who happened to pop into my mind as I was recalling the many events of the past. (Items in Parenthesis are some of those I hope to yet write about) Bob Zuelsdorf 5 Memoirs of a Broadcast Engineer [my 1954 Television interview] …he had been at CBS New York and had chosen to return to his home state of Wisconsin. As he was also a technical individual, Smitty and I connected immediately. I had a strong interest in the UHF band and a good deal of experience and background in the higher frequencies such as UHF and Radar. My previous work with resonant cavities fit right in with understanding the cavity resonators of the WKOW-TV RCA TTU1B Channel 27 transmitter. The interview ended by my being immediately hired by Smitty as a Television Broadcast Engineer!! Prologue Growing up in rural Wisconsin was an interesting and generally posi- tive experience. While not living on a farm, there was ample opportu- nity to sample farm life. I was born at home in York Center in August of 9. My brother Joe preceded me having been born a year earlier at Columbus Hospital in June of 90. We both attended the York Center school, a one room school a mile to the south of York Center. Before we were old enough to have bicycles we walked both ways each day, except in the coldest weather when we got rides to and from school. For most of his eight years at school Joe was the only one in his class, while my class was huge – for the first six years there were five of us! One teacher, usually at the back of the room, handled all 8 grades, if indeed there was at least one student per grade, which was not always the case. During the early 90’s York Center consisted of two farms, Dad’s Garage and Machine Shop, a Cheese Factory, a General Store and the York Center Town Hall along with the Town of York equipment buildings. The population was 6 people. At the Garage we worked on and repaired everything from farm tractors and farm equipment to autos, motorcycles, race cars, tracked vehicles and Mack trucks. I grew up helping, and learning, in Dad’s York Center Garage and Machine Shop. There was a farm at the south end of York Center on Hwy 7 and to the north was another farm. Across the road from the Garage was the 6 Cheese Factory and just past the Cheese Factory on the gravel road to the west was the General Store. The Town of York buildings were across the intersection to the northwest of the Garage. A Tavern was just south of

    ATSC 3.0 Transition and Implementation Guide INTRODUCTION This document was developed to provide broadcasters with ATSC 3.0 information that can inform investment and technical decisions required to move from ATSC 1.0 to ATSC 3.0. It also guides broadcasters who are planning for its adoption while also planning for channel changes during the FCC Spectrum Repack Program. This document, finalized September 9, 2016, will be updated periodically as insight and additional information is made available from industry testing and implementation of the new standard. This document was developed by the companies and organizations listed in the Appendix. Updates to the Guide are open to input from all companies and individuals that wish to contribute. Those interested in suggesting changes or updates to this document can do so at [email protected]. 2 ATSC 3.0 Transition and Implementation Guide EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Television service continues to evolve as content distributors – from traditional cable operators to internet-delivered services – utilize the latest technologies to reach viewers and offer a wide variety of program choices. New receiving devices are easily connected to the internet, which relies on the language of Internet Protocol (IP) to transport content. Now terrestrial broadcasters are preparing both for the adoption of an IP-ready next-generation digital TV (DTV) standard and a realignment of the U.S. TV spectrum. Viewers are already buying high-quality displays that respond to 4K Ultra HDTV signals and High Dynamic Range (HDR) capabilities. Immersive and personalized audio is also emerging, with the ability to enhance the quality and variety of audio.
