INTERFERENCE IN TV RECEPTION
“One Of Biggest Problems” "The Press’' Special Service ROTORUA, September 24. One of the biggest problems in introducing television would be interference to reception, said Mr R. N. White at a meeting of the Electric Supply Authority Engineers’ Institute. Mr White said that for the last two years he had operated a television set receiving signals from Auckland. It seemed likely that most interference would come in the form of white specks on the screen. If the Government provided stations which sent out strong signals, interference would be greatly reduced. Mr N. A. Andrews said that much of the material used for power distribution would interfere with television reception. A report from Canada indicated that in general television interference resulted from the same causes as interference to radio reception. The most obvious interference came from loose connexions carrying an electrical current, he said. It was also essential that normal distribution lines and high-voltage lines were not carried on the same poles.
