Television station

A television station is an organization or facility that produces or transmits television programming for viewers, often using an assigned channel.

Broadcast transmitter: Equipment that converts broadcast signals into radio waves for transmission. Its antennas send a station’s over-the-air signal to receiving devices.
Local television: Television programming produced for or focused on a particular geographic area. Local stations tailor news and public-affairs coverage to nearby communities.
Mechanical television: An early television system that used mechanical scanning to transmit moving images. Its experimental broadcasts preceded stations built around electronic television.
Television network: An organization that supplies and coordinates programming across affiliated television outlets. A network distributes programs; an individual station operates a local outlet or service.
Television studio: A facility equipped for producing and recording television programs. Studios are where stations make news, interviews, and other programs.
Television news: News reporting produced and distributed in video form for television audiences. News departments are a major source of locally produced station programming.
Electronic television: Television technology that uses electronic systems to capture, transmit, and display images. Electronic systems made regular television station service practical.
Television channel: A numbered or named television service or transmission path carrying programming. A channel is the service or frequency, while a station is the organization or facility behind it.
Broadcast programming: The selection and scheduling of programs for broadcast audiences. A station organizes programs into a schedule for its channel.
Public broadcasting: Broadcasting organized to serve public interests rather than primarily commercial goals. Public stations operate under a service mission distinct from commercial outlets.
