High- School Map of CBLT Service Areas On July 9, CBLT will commence summer operation on channel 9 from a temporary antenna 140 feet above ground level with an effective radia- ted power (ERP) of 30 Kw. This temporary operation will last until the end of August by which time the new channel 6 antenna should have been installed on the Jarvis St. tower. The brief temporary operation will probably result in a poorer picture for some areas now being served by CBLT, although, it cannot He predicted definitely to what extent the service will deteriorate. It is--expected that viewers in such centres as Mimico, Searboro and Willowdale will still be able to pick up the channel 9 picture without the use of an outside antenna, The channel 9 Grade "B" contour, the limit of good reception: using a medium gain antenna, is expected to circle Toronto passing through such points ag Oakville, Richmond Hill and Pickering. This forecast is necessar- ily a conservative estimate. The dis- tance a television signal travels de- pends __on so many different things that it is quite possible that viewers in many areas outside the estimated "B" contour will be able to pick up the CBLT signal. } CBLT's change-over from channel 9 to channel 6 was planned for the summer months so that the temporary decrease in coverage area would af- fect as few viewers as possible. Tele- vision viewing is usually at a mini- mum during fine-weather summer months. It might be said that CBLT is temporarily tightening its belt dur- ing the period of lightest service to come back in the fall with a better picture for a bigger audience. It is estimated that the change-over from channel nine to channel 6 will bring Canadian television to approximately 300,000 more potential viewers and will certainly improve reception in many areas now being served by channel 9. : The darkest shaded area "A" in- cludes those places where viewers, using a medium gain antenna, 'may expect good reception from CBLT's signal while the station is transmitting from a temporary antenna. Area "B" represents the limits of similar re- ception on channel "9, The lightest shaded area "C" shows what the ex- tent of good reception will be when CBLT transfers to channel 62 These are approximate areas. 'The CBLT signal will probably go beyond these limits, interesting Eastern Star Birthday Party The Eighth Birthday Party of Blue 'TRay Chapter was recently celehrated and held in the beautiful Auditorium of the Port Perry Public School with approximately two hundred members and visitors present. The Worthy Matron, Margaret Cor- nish, certainly "warmly" welcomed the distinguished guests and members and vas delighted to see s6 many on hand for this gala event.

"In 1920 the average long distance call took 14 minutes to com- plete. In 1960, with the completion of Direct Distance Dialing, long dis: tance connections will be made in 15 the speaker said, In addition to completing the calls automatically, the details of the call such as ealling number, called place, calls seconds" length of call are recorded on a paper tape by the clectronic equipment. The tape is processed in an accounting centre where the details of the ealls are sorted, assembled, and statements priated--all automatically. Another essential of Direet Distance Dialing is a network of long distance routes with the eapaeity to carry all calls dialed, whatever their destina. tion.
