Abstract
This report describes a pilot survey conducted in Pinellas County, Florida, in November 1967, to evaluate methodology and techniques for use in determining the effectiveness of the General Electric Company's color television receiver modification program and in assessing the total radiation emission situation for television sets of all manufacturers. The primary objective of this survey was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Company's modification program to replace shunt regulator tubes which were emitting radiation in a downward beam. (Author)
