O. S. Roscoe

Television broadcasting from satellites directly to low-cost individual home receivers will be widespread in many countries before the end of the decade. Canadian field trials have provided valuable experience with direct broadcasting satellites (DBS) operations and have increased awareness of the potential for such technology. A comprehensive study plan leading to the introduction of DBS service in Canada as early as 1983 is now under way.
