Television and Radio

Contained within the 3rd Edition (1957) of the Atlas of Canada is a plate that shows two condensed maps of television and radio stations across Canada. The top map shows the location and call letters of Canadian television stations and indicates the network connections for these stations. Television stations are shown as being operated by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation or by private affiliates. Private stations not in operation, satellite stations and satellite stations not in operation are also indicated. Network connections are shown as being part of English or French networks and being complete or under construction. If a station was serviced by kinerecording or temporarily served by off-air pickup, this is displayed on the map as well. The second map on this plate shows the location and call letters of Canadian radio stations. Basic stations and supplementary stations are shown with wire network lines for the Trans-Canada Network, the Dominion Network and French Network. Stations, relay transmitters, pick up stations and rebroadcasting stations are shown for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. The locations of non-network stations are shown on this map as well. Data for both of these maps are from 1958.
