SYNCHRONISED BROADCASTS
CHAIN SYSTEM IN FAVOUR First utilised by the British Broadcasting Corporation’s synchronised network, systems on which several widelyseparated stations broadcast the one programme on an identical wave length, have come into wide favour. _ In addition to the two major American networks, the C.B.S. and the N.BiC., seven European countries have arranged 19 synchronised chains embracing 55 transmitters, thus freeing 36 broadcast channels and easing congestion on the ether. Further steps are to bo taken in this direction, and it is hoped, through providing the Brussels Control Centre, where frequency measurements are constantly being made on long, medium, and, short waves, with new equipment, to hold broadcasting accurately to their allotted frequencies and thus minimise programme interaction.
