TELEVISION ANTENNAS
AERIAL FROM KIT
When the location for the receiver has been 45-1525

selected, the antenna should be installed. The


antenna is a very important part of the installa-
tion and the following factors enter into the
installation problem.
Very-high-frequency radio waves, such as HOLES SHOWN IN PAIRS FOR

those used in television, have some characteristics 1,2, 3.4 5,6
different from those used in ordinary broadcast-
ing. The most important difference is the straight-
line travel of television waves, called line-of-sight
propagation. The television broadcast does not .ERIAL FROM KIT

that reliable reception beyond the horizon is not


possible. The broadcast can be intercepted by a
hill or other obstruction, thus preventing recep-
tion by a receiver located behind such an obstruc-
tion. For this reason, it is necessary to locate
the antenna as high as possible above surround-
ing objects. Another peculiarity of television 7

multiple signal paths must therefore be avoided. bi-directional since it receives equally well in
Television reception requires the use of either direction at right angles to the line of the
special antennas. The most common type is the rods, but receives very poorly in either direction
half-wave dipole, consisting of two rods, each in line with the rods. Such an antenna can be
used where it is desired to receive from two
directions, and where reflections, or ghosts do
not interfere with such reception. Where inter-
ference occurs, it is necessary to use a more direc-
tional antenna, such as a dipole-with-reflector,
shown in figure 3. Such an antenna receives best
only from the direction indicated, and therefore
tends to suppress reflections arriving at the an-
tenna from other than the direction in which the
antenna is aimed. Moreover, the dipole-with-
reflector will provide a stronger received signal.
The length of the sections of the dipole
antenna is based upon free-space wave lengths.
This length can be converted into the physical
length by use of the following formula:

necessary to employ "cut" dipoles except in
12 204-210 2.26 2.37 installations where signal strength is abnormally
low, or where interference or reflections are ex-
ceptionally troublesome.
Transmission lines for use in television re-
ception are specifically designed to match the
antenna. For this reason, it is necessary to employ
the type of line specified for the receiver. For
all 1948 Model Philco Television Receivers, 300-
ohm parallel-wire line, Part No. 45-1514, is re-
quired. Installation of this line should be care-
fully made, with special regard to properly secur-
ing the line at intervals of not more than three
feet, to prevent vibration or other types of damage
to the line. Connections to the receiver are made
by means of a four-prong plug and jack. See
figure 5.
Television antenna installations must be
made with special emphasis upon the following
points.
1. The antenna must be placed in a high
position, clear of all obstructions, and in line-of-
sight of the transmitting station.
2. The antenna must be properly aimed to
obtain maximum signal strength and freedom
from echoes and interference.

To provide maximum sensitivity and selec-
tivity, consistent with a six-megacycle pass band
in the r-f section, a separate set of coils is used
for each of the thirteen television channels. The
antenna coil and the r-f amplifier coil for each
channel are built as an assembly, as are the mixer
coil and the local-oscillator coil, so that two as-
semblies comprise a set of coils for any one
television broadcast channel. Any eight of these
thirteen sets of coils may be easily installed in
the Philco Precision Channel Selector, without
soldering or wiring. Since a maximum of only
seven television broadcasting stations is alloted to
any one area, the Philco Precision Channel Selec-
