  • Abstract
    There is a definite need for improving television service to small cities and towns which lie in the fringe areas or in ``holes´´ of service areas of television stations. There are at present a great many such communities which receive little or no TV service. Because of their limited population and because of the economics involved, there probably will continue to be for a long time a great many such ``TV-poor´´ communities unless some low-cost means of providing good service to them is developed and adopted into a national allocation plan.
