Description

Pages 28 and 29 of McGraw-Hill’s engineering monthly Electronics for June 1937 print “Electron Patterns,” nine photographs taken off a television tube by C. E. Burnett of RCA Radiotron while he was testing tube characteristics. Each caption lists the deflection waves and the frequencies, up to eight, fed together to the control grid. The issue says he tried the combinations “more or less at random.” In 1958 the oscilloscope artist Ben F. Laposky cited this feature as the first suggestion of using the oscilloscope for design.
