Title: Short, circa. 1937 modulation & broadcast theory news reel.

A quick, interesting news reel. Some very nice iron after the 6 minute mark.

The meat and taters start about the 3:30 mark.

Good resolution in full screen.

Everything was more buzzardly in the 30s.

The announcer has some pipes on him.
 
They weren't shy about the bass, ( not beer ), potential of the tubers.

I like the end fed, mobile ant. set up.

Did you recognise the Blaw-Knox tower and transmitter building at WSM, Nashville?
