I've always been quite fascinated by the restorations of 1930s mechanical TV videos and understanding what's actually being shown - sometimes difficult due to the painfully low resolution and noise introduced by the recording and transmitting media. One of those scenes restored by Don McLean is the Astoria dancing girls
I thought I'd do a modern transcription of dancing girls to see how it compared. Very well, actually - quite remarkable that this sort of quality (on Don's page) was achieved in the mid 1930s.
You more than likely have one the best mechanical Nipkow Televisons displays around might be also the only one in Tasmania ? .... well best i have seen in any case...any one can match it ? Looking at your video makes me wonder if it ever was as good in the past. Using neons it would of been orange for a start would they have ever seen it in b/w ? I wonder if Baird since he did a 3 colour display ever mixed the colours to get white light so a b/w display ?
The electromagnetic spectrum has no theoretical limit at either end. If all the mass/energy in the Universe is considered a 'limit', then that would be the only real theoretical limit to the maximum frequency attainable.
