In 1947, almost everyone outside of big cities thought that FM radio would be the next big thing instead of television.

There was a 1947 Beitman, which was titled "1947 Most-Often-Needed F.M. and Television Servicing Information."

To the best of my knowledge it was reissued as "1946-1948 Television Servicing Information."

The title and cover were changed, but the contents were almost identical.

I bought my copy of 46-48 combined in the late 1950's but it was misplaced or lost during my last move or I could be more precise on the contents. I still have the original 1947 that I bought to "upgrade" my reissue copy and then discovered it had no additional information.

James.
