Abstract

A general description is given of an experimental television system using a cathode ray tube (kinescope) as the image reproducing element in the receiver. The fundamental considerations underlying the design and use of the kinescope for television are outlined. A description of the circuits associated with the kinescope and an explanation of the application to an experimental receiver are included.
