A Possibility
A spokesman for radio station
WMAJ yesterday revealed that
within a month or so the Federal
Communications Com mission
will clarify State College's posi
tion in regards to television re
ception.
Bemuses of the premature
state which now exists in the
television field, the possibility of
the local reception is uncertain,
it was learned.
However, an application has
been submitted to the FCC for
channel privileges, and the FCC
has given some indication that
State College would eventually
get TV.
Since that time, however, the
FCC has issued a "freeze" on all
high frequency channels, thus
only ultra high frequency chan
nels are available. Transmitting
equipment for these channels is
not available, however.
