2. T ELEVISION (T.V) The Television is a system or process of producing on a distant screen a series of transient visible images, usually with an accompanying sound signal. Electrical signals, converted from optical images by a camera tube, are transmitted by UHF or VHF radio waves or by cable and reconverted into optical images by means of a television tube inside a television set.

3. 1 9 2 8 In 1928, a young man by the name of Philo Farnsworth invented the television system. Farnsworth was only 22 when he invented the tv. The television he created was called a scanning disk. The scanning disk had a light-detecting device, usually a photoelectric cell, behind it. In the reproducer (the display), a modulated light source, usually used a neon tube, replacing the light detector. As each hole flew by, it produced a scan line.

4. 1 9 3 2 In 1932 Charles Francois Jenkins Invented the “Jenkins JD-30”. The JD-30 is a broadcast/shortwave receiver designed to connect to a scanning disk set with either a flat plate neon or a crater lamp. It was made in 1932, and was sold with the Jenkins R-400 lens disk scanner. Jenkins took the scanning disk and made it a little more complex, to eventually get us the televisions we have today.

5. 1 9 4 1 As time travels, ideas and inventions increase. In 1941, General Electric Facilities manufactured the “Musaphonic Model 90”. This model consisted of 12" console, wood (mahogany), 5 channels, and TV-radio. GE manufactured only 75 units, but none were sold.

There are also cons to TV such as, bad influences, the wrong image being displayed for anybody to see, and the wrong message being sent out and taken as something acceptable.
