I don't know if they had a newsletter, but I remember the GE TV Gear. 
In 1970 KSL-TV had 3 GE Color Cameras and a GE film chain. The 
cameras were hauled over to the Mormon tabernacle every Sunday 
morning for Music and the Spoken Word. They were very heavy and not 
fun to transport. The film chain didn't even compare to the RCA 
TK-27. The RCA cameras and film chains were top of the line in those days.

To the Group:

      For many years, RCA published their "RCA Broadcast News" and sent it to
just about anyone that bought RCA gear, especially big ticket items like
antennas and transmitters. They published this from 1933 until sometime in
the 1970s, before they got out of the business altogether.

      Does anyone know if General Electric did anything similar when they
were making broadcast gear?
