DISCABLE: A New Automatic Sound And View Programming For CATV (1972)
By Co-authored By John L. Humphreys And Robert E. Weiblen, Discable/National Trend-In Corporation
DISCABLE is a new concept in cable services combining FM stereo programming and video display for CATV systems. DISCABLE is a combination hardware-software package that places up to fifty channels of highly tailored musical and radio programming on the FM portion of the cablecasting band. In addition, DISCABLE presents a video printout of the FM programs on useable cable TV channels, while providing the insertion of local video information messages. The DISCABLE system is automatic in operation and is controlled by long play, pre-recorded tape operation, produced by a central production agency.
