Postwar American Television

UHF Converters

These converters, made by Alliance (left) and Sylvania (right), were sold in the early 50s to allow TV sets, which at that time had only VHF (channel 2-13) tuners, to receive the new UHF channels 14-82. Later, the FCC required all TV sets to be equipped with UHF channels.
