Abstract :
The development of Touch-Tuning Systems for television receivers marks the first significant change in this function in twenty-five years. Impetus for the change has been provided by the availability of solid-state, varactor VHF and UHF tuners which have the advantage of no moving parts, together with silent, instantaneous control by dc voltages.
