[Tig] Nazi "TV"

[beau tardy]

Absolutely phony.  it was absolutely impossible to take a Nipkow camera outside.  
Furthermore, it was also impossible to transfer TV footage to film.  
These are simply filmed archives.  The light needed to film with these cameras was so strong that
these pictures simply would not have been possible. 

BTW in 1927 Charles Francis Jenkins was granted the first American experimental TV license for station W3XK.
He broadcast regular shows.  In 1928 station W2XAD in Schenectady (NY) broadcast the first TV drama  "The Queen's Messenger".
So much for the claim that the Nazi's were somehow the first to broadcast TV in 1936!


Nice try though.
