Show Facsimile Newspapers Transmitted by Radio 1 p -t ,W ? V " sT, r i ' L J I , - The world's first regular broadcast of specially prepared facsimile newspapers was inaugurated in St. Louis recently by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Latest news events were recorded on 15 receiving sets placed in the homes of members of the station's staff. The original copy of the facsimile newspaper was placed one page at a time on the cylinder of the sending apparatus, and was transmitted by radio waves to receiving sets similar to the dhe on the right, where the owners read the transmitted newspaper in their own homes. |
