Actually, Victor goes back to maybe 1901 and the Radio Corporation was formed during WWI as a patent pool safeguard measure to protect them from the enemy. Westinghouse, General Electric and AT&T IIRC were the founders and it was later spun off the satisfy trade laws. AT&T was out BEFORE selling the network that became NBC in 1926.
The net had a gorgeous studio complex right there in San Fransisco for several years, and SF was the hub there for recreating the shows for the western audiences.
