New York Network — A Progress Report

Joseph W. Doherty

The New York Network's planning and installation of facilities, some unique programing capabilities and system performance are reported. There is a timetable for systematic follow-up involving four major contracts, personnel procurement, training and acceptance tests. Synchronous operation of all network sync generator equipment is provided. Performance data are given for the microwave system and the control center. The system's duplex capabilities are used in a practical sense; many simultaneous operations may be carried out, and each contributes to overall flexibility and economy for participating stations. Intercommunication facilities include TWX, talk circuits and one PL circuit which doubles as a backup audio system for program audio.
