Stratovision information


Westinghouse and Glenn L. Martin employees pose with B-29 Superfortress used in Stratovision tests. In rear row from left are Frank Gordon Mullins and C.E. Nobles, head of Stratovision for Westinghouse.

Stratovision was an airborne television transmission relay system using aircraft flying at high altitudes. In 1945 the Glenn L. Martin Company and Westinghouse Electric Corporation originally proposed television coverage of small towns and rural areas, as well as the large metropolitan centers, by fourteen aircraft that would provide coverage for approximately 78% of the people in the United States. Although this was never implemented, the system has been used for domestic broadcasting in the United States, and by the U.S. military in South Vietnam and other countries.
