A Series of Mobile Television Units for Color Broadcast

The design and construction of color television mobile units for the fast-growing field requirements take the engineer into many complex and diverse areas not usually encountered in studio design and construction. Gross vehicle weight, load distribution, tire loading and suspension systems become familiar terms. The requirements for heating and air-conditioning also differ from the conventional in many respects. In response to these requirements, four mobile units of three distinct types were developed and built by the engineering staff of WMAQ-TV in Chicago. One or a combination of these should meet the field needs of almost any television station or network.
