Simulcast (a portmanteau of simultaneous broadcast ) is the broadcasting of programs or events across more than one resolution , bitrate or medium , or more than one service on the same medium, at exactly the same time (that is, simultaneously). For example, Absolute Radio is simulcast on both AM and on satellite radio . Likewise, the BBC 's Prom concerts were formerly simulcast on both BBC Radio 3 and BBC Television . Another application is the transmission of the original-language soundtrack of movies or TV series over local or Internet radio , with the television broadcast having been dubbed into a local language.

142-534: A simulcast of selected Monday Night Football games featuring Eli and Peyton Manning , joined by celebrity guests; the success of these broadcasts prompted ESPN to extend the format to other sports, with the Mannings' production company Omaha Productions being involved in some of these broadcasts. On cable television systems, analog-digital simulcasting (ADS) means that analog channels are duplicated as digital subchannels . Digital tuners are programmed to use

213-544: A "roadblock" in an effort to maximize ratings by preventing self-cannibalizing counterprogramming ; for example, Paramount Global (and corporate predecessor Viacom ) has simulcast award shows produced by its flagship properties across its cable channels, such as the MTV Video Music Awards and Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards . Certain events—particularly major charity appeals (such as Hope for Haiti Now and Stand Up to Cancer )—may be jointly simulcast by

Simulcast Before launching stereo radio, experiments were conducted by transmitting left and right channels on different radio channels. The earliest record found

426-489: A consortium of networks in order to ensure a wide audience. In sports, such as American football and baseball, simulcasts are when a single announcer broadcasts play-by-play coverage both over television and radio. The practice was common in the early years of television, but since the 1980s, most teams have used a separate team for television and for radio. In the National Hockey League , two teams currently use

497-434: A particular team's games are available on free-to-air television in their home market, NFL rules require that not aired by a broadcast television network (including cable networks and streaming platforms) be simulcast on a broadcast station in the main market of each participating team. In greyhound racing and horse racing , a simulcast is a broadcast of a greyhound or horse race which allows wagering at two or more sites;

568-413: A press agent at WCAU-TV, Philadelphia. NBC and CBS had begun broadcasting a few programs both to their established nationwide radio audience and to the much smaller—though steadily-growing—television audience. NBC's "Voice of Firestone" is sometimes mentioned in this regard, but NBC's "Voice of Firestone Televues" program, reaching a small Eastern audience beginning in 1943, was a TV-only show, distinct from

639-450: A radio station (1490 AM) licensed to Frankfort, Kentucky, United States, which has carried the WKYW callsign since December 2007 [REDACTED] Topics referred to by the same term This disambiguation page lists articles about radio and/or television stations with the same/similar call signs or branding.

710-507: A simulcast: Al McCoy ( Phoenix ), Chick Hearn ( Los Angeles ), Kevin Calabro ( Seattle ) and Rod Hundley ( Utah ) were the last National Basketball Association team broadcasters to be simulcast. Until his retirement in 2016, the first three innings of Vin Scully 's commentary for Los Angeles Dodgers home and NL West road games were simulcast on radio and television, with the remainder of

781-560: A stereo FM transmitter modulating MTV's stereo soundtrack through the cable-TV network, and customers connecting their FM receiver's antenna input to the cable-TV outlet. They would then tune the FM receiver to the specified frequency that would be published in documentation supplied by the cable-TV provider. With the introduction of commercial FM stations in Australia in July 1980, commercial TV channels began simulcasting some music based programs with

852-479: A stereo standard which allowed secondary audio tracks through the television spectrum. The first cable TV concert simulcast was Frank Zappa 's Halloween show (31 October 1981), live from NYC's Palladium and shown on MTV with the audio-only portion simulcast over FM's new "Starfleet Radio" network. Engineered by Mark G. Pinske with the UMRK mobile recording truck. A later, notable application for simulcasting in this context

923-460: A wide range of simulcasts, taking programmes from the BBC World Service and Radio 1, 2, 3 and 4 for simultaneous broadcast. Before stereo TV sound transmission was possible, simulcasting on TV and radio was a method of effectively transmitting "stereo" sound to music TV broadcasts. Typically, an FM frequency in the broadcast area for viewers to tune their stereo systems to would be displayed on

994-677: Is a 50,000–watt Class A clear channel station. It is one of two clear-channel stations in Philadelphia, the other being sister station WPHT . With a good radio receiver, its nighttime signal can be heard in much of the Eastern United States and Eastern Canada, however, it restricts its signal towards the Southwest United States to protect XECPAE-AM in Mexico City, which shares Class A status on AM 1060 . The station's signal

1065-518: Is based in Philadelphia. Entercom had never previously owned a station in its home market. The transaction separated KYW from its television counterparts, and marked the first time since its establishment 96 years earlier that KYW was no longer owned by a direct descendant of Westinghouse. KYW radio ended its longtime partnership with KYW-TV on February 10, 2020, and began broadcasting traffic, news, and weather information from NBC-owned WCAU (channel 10). The change coincided with KYW radio's move from

1136-904: Is one of the oldest continuously operating radio stations in the United States, originating in Chicago before moving to Philadelphia in 1934. KYW's unusual history includes its call sign of only three letters, beginning with a K, rare for a station in the Eastern United States. It broadcasts an all-news radio format and is branded as "KYW Newsradio". KYW serves as the flagship station of Audacy, Inc. KYW's studios are co-located within Audacy's corporate headquarters in Center City Philadelphia and its transmitter and two-tower directional antenna array are located in Lafayette Hill, Pennsylvania . KYW

1207-737: Is restricted towards the Northeast United States to protect the signal of WEPN in New York City, which is one frequency away at 1050 AM . KYW Newsradio's programming is also available via a simulcast on sister station 103.9 WPHI-FM and the HD2 subchannel of sister station 94.1 WIP-FM . In November 1920, the Westinghouse Electric & Manufacturing Company established its first broadcasting station, KDKA , located at its plant in East Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania , to promote

1278-464: Is the common problem of over-compression (quantity over quality) resulting in fuzzy pictures and pixelation . Multiplexing —also sometimes called "multicasting"—is something of a reversal of this situation, where multiple program streams are combined into a single broadcast. The two terms are sometimes confused. In universities with multiple campuses, simulcasting may be used for a single teacher to teach class to students in two or more locations at

1349-712: The Chicago Civic Auditorium stage, with equipment for switching between them as needed. After the close of the opera season, KYW installed a studio in the Commonwealth Edison building, and began producing additional programming. By fall of 1922 the station was operating for twelve hours a day. In 1927, Westinghouse affiliated its four radio stations (KYW, KDKA in Pittsburgh, WBZ in Springfield and WBZA in Boston) with

1420-587: The National Broadcasting Company 's (NBC) Blue Network , originating from WJZ in New York City, which had been transferred from Westinghouse to the Radio Corporation of America (RCA) in 1923. Westinghouse had been a founding partner of RCA, NBC's original parent company. In 1923, Westinghouse established a station, KFKX in Hastings, Nebraska , located near the center of the country. The station

1491-980: The United States and Global (1989 to 2018) and Citytv (2018 to 2021) in Canada and entertainment show Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway , airing Saturday nights at various times between 7:00 pm and 7:30 pm on ITV in the United Kingdom and Virgin Media One in the Republic of Ireland .

1562-477: The talk radio , sports radio , or all-news radio format of an AM station is simulcast on FM, mainly for the convenience of listeners in office buildings in urban cores which easily block AM signals, as well as those with FM-only tuners. In another case, popular programs will be aired simultaneously on different services in adjacent countries, such as animated sitcom The Simpsons , airing Sunday evenings at 8:00 p.m. (Eastern and Pacific times) on both Fox in

1633-424: The 1980s. It could, however, be argued that these Toscanini presentations—with admission controlled by NBC, as with all its programming—were no more "public concerts" than NBC's "Voice of Firestone" broadcasts beginning in 1949, or its "Band of America" programs, which were simulcast starting 17 October 1949. Likewise Toscanini's simulcast NBC presentation of two acts of Verdi's "Aida" on 3 April 1949. Presently, in

1704-540: The CBS Broadcast Center (which continues to house KYW-TV) to 2400 Market Street, along with Entercom's other Philadelphia radio stations and its corporate headquarters. KYW broke from its all-news format on November 3, 2022, to simulcast Game 5 of the 2022 World Series , which involved the Philadelphia Phillies , with WPHT. The Phillies' flagship station, WIP-FM (94.1), could not air the game because of

1775-540: The Chicago area: KFKX and WEBH. On September 1, 1928, the Federal Radio Commission (FRC) ordered that their operations should be consolidated. WEBH was deleted, and the other two stations were merged, with a dual call letter assignment of KYW-KFKX, although the latter call sign would be rarely if ever used after 1930. In 1929, KYW's transmitter was moved from the top of Chicago's Congress Hotel to west suburban Bloomingdale Township . On May 15, 1933, after

1846-729: The FCC and the United States Department of Justice that it had been coerced into making the station swap, including a threat by NBC to revoke Westinghouse's NBC-TV affiliations. A lengthy investigation was launched. In September 1959 the Justice Department issued a decision which, in part, instructed NBC to divest WRCV-AM-TV by the end of 1962. Several months later in early 1960, NBC announced it would trade its Philadelphia stations to RKO General in exchange for that company's Boston outlets, WNAC-AM - FM - TV . That proposed station swap

1917-844: The FM dial was shifted. But development of FM radio was slow and Westinghouse decided to shut down KYW-FM in mid-1954; the equipment was donated to the Delaware Valley Educational Television Corporation and the Philadelphia Board of Education. KYW acquired a television counterpart in late February 1953, when Westinghouse bought WPTZ (channel 3), the nation's third commercial television station and NBC's second television affiliate, from Philco . In June 1955 Westinghouse agreed to trade KYW and WPTZ to NBC in exchange for NBC's Cleveland properties, WTAM-AM - FM and WNBK television ; Westinghouse also received $ 3 million in cash compensation. The main impetus for

1988-452: The FRC requested that stations using only one of their assigned call letters drop those that were no longer in regular use, KFKX was eliminated and the station reverted to just KYW. Under the provisions of the FRC's General Order 40 , a sweeping reallocation of station frequency assignments was implemented on November 11, 1928. KYW was assigned to the clear channel frequency of 1020 kHz, but

2059-427: The KYW call letters to the radio station. The television station became KYW-TV at this point. On September 21, 1965, shortly after Westinghouse regained control of 1060 AM, the newly revived KYW dropped its NBC radio affiliation. It became one of the first radio stations in the country to switch to an all-news radio format. Newscaster Steve Porter read the first newscast, which had been edited by Fred B. Walters ,

2130-548: The KYW-TV callsign since 1965 WTAM , a radio station (1100 AM) licensed to Cleveland, Ohio, United States, which carried the KYW callsign from 1956 to 1965 WMJI , a radio station (105.7 FM) licensed to Cleveland, Ohio, United States, which carried the KYW-FM callsign from 1956 to 1965 WKYC , a television station (channel 3) licensed to Cleveland, Ohio, United States, which carried the KYW-TV callsign from 1956 to 1965 WKYW (AM) ,

2201-454: The United States, simulcast most often refers to the practice of offering the same programming on an FM and AM station owned by the same entity, in order to cut costs. With the advent of solid state AM transmitters and computers, it has become very easy for AM stations to broadcast a different format without additional cost; therefore, simulcast between FM/AM combinations are rarely heard today outside of rural areas, and in urban areas, where often

2272-458: The VCR's audio line-in connectors. This was to allow one to connect a stereo FM tuner that is tuned to the simulcast frequency to the VCR's audio input in order to record the stereo sound of a TV program that would otherwise be recorded in mono. The function was primarily necessary with stereo VCRs that didn't have a stereo TV tuner or were operated in areas where stereo TV broadcasting wasn't in place. This

2343-500: The WWF's Raw on USA Network (from Cleveland)—on March 26, 2001, featured WWF owner Vince McMahon addressing the sale, only for his son Shane McMahon to reveal in-universe that he had bought WCW instead, setting up an "Invasion" storyline to begin integrating WCW talent and championships into WWF. It is not uncommon for broadcasters to simulcast a particular program (such as a marquee event or special) across all of their networks as

2414-598: The all-news format. In 1972, KYW moved to new studios in Independence Mall East , at Fifth and Market streets, where it would remain for the next 35 years. KYW has long been a leader in the Philadelphia radio market, although its audience had naturally reduced due to the decline of AM as a whole. KYW-TV took advantage of the radio station's popularity by incorporating a version of KYW's musical sounder into its news themes from 1991 to 2003. In addition, KYW Newsradio This Morning aired on co-owned WPSG (channel 57) in

2485-419: The assignment caused two major problems. KYW's signal on the new frequency experienced difficulties in covering the entire city of Chicago. A relay transmitter , KYWA, was set up in late 1928, although it was no longer needed by the spring of 1930. A second issue was that, under the provisions of the " Davis Amendment ", eight clear channel frequencies were to be allocated to each of five national regions. Chicago

2556-407: The burden of having to air encores of sporting events or other paid sports programming which may draw lower audiences. In New Zealand , breakfast programme The AM Show airs on television channel Three and was simulcast on radio station Magic Talk ; both networks were owned and operated by MediaWorks New Zealand until December 2020, when Three was sold to Discovery, Inc. In 2022, the programme

2627-482: The digital subchannel instead of the analog. This allows for smaller, cheaper cable boxes by eliminating the analog tuner and some analog circuitry. On DVRs , it eliminates the need for an MPEG encoder to convert the analog signal to digital for recording. The primary advantage is the elimination of interference, and as analog channels are dropped, the ability to put 10 or more SDTV (or two HDTV , or various other combinations) channels in its place. The primary drawback

2698-835: The divestiture of the NBC Blue network (which later became the American Broadcasting Company ). In mid-May 1938, KYW moved to new studios at 1619 Walnut Street in Center City. On March 29, 1941, KYW's clear channel assignment was shifted from 1020 to 1060 kHz, its current frequency, as part of a nationwide adjustment of assignments engineered by the North American Regional Broadcasting Agreement (NARBA). In 1942, KYW added an FM station at 45.7 megacycles , W57PH. It largely simulcast KYW's programming and later moved to 92.5 MHz as KYW-FM when

2769-433: The early 2000s, adapting KYW's "news blocks" to television (though it was not a simulcast of KYW itself). KYW anchors and reporters were seen on morning television delivering the news. In 1995, Westinghouse Electric announced its purchase of CBS. Upon its completion KYW became a sister station to its long-time rival, CBS-owned WGMP (1210 AM, now WPHT). That station, under its original WCAU call letters, had attempted during

2840-486: The final regulatory hurdles, the swap went into effect on January 22, 1956. On February 13, NBC changed KYW's call letters in Philadelphia to WRCV (for the RCA-Victor record label). At the same time, Westinghouse changed the call letters of its new Cleveland station from WTAM to KYW. The Westinghouse-NBC station swap, and its subsequent reversal nine years later, resulted in two alternate ways to recount KYW's history. In

2911-530: The former Harrisburg bureau chief and eventual executive editor. The new format was part of Westinghouse's decision to put all-news formats on its large market AM stations. Five months earlier the company had converted WINS in New York City from a Top 40 format to all-news. A third conversion was made three years later at another Westinghouse-owned station, KFWB in Los Angeles. The Westinghouse trio of all-news stations made numerous contributions to developing

It

3124-651: The late 1970s to compete with KYW with all-news programming. The effort failed, with WCAU switching to a talk format after a three-year effort. From 1986 to 1998, KYW used the C-QUAM AM Stereo system, but abandoned stereo broadcasts about the time of the CBS-Westinghouse merger and went back to standard monophonic broadcasts. The station previously used the HD Radio digital system created by iBiquity beginning in 2007 after an initial testing period. In March 2007,

3195-412: The matter was placed in the hands of an FRC examiner, who held hearings in July 1932 to sort through 23 conflicting applications from 16 stations. Examiner Pratt's recommendation concluded that KYW's willingness to move to Philadelphia was the best possible outcome. After broadcasting its last program in Chicago on December 2, 1934, KYW aired its debut Philadelphia program the next day. Westinghouse used

3266-440: The new commercial FM stations and continued to do so into the early 1990s. These were initially rock based programs, such as late night music video shows and rock concerts, but later included some major rock musicals such as The Rocky Horror Picture Show and The Blues Brothers when they first aired on TV. During the mid-1980s the final Australian concert of several major rock artists such as Dire Straits were simulcast live on

3337-470: The radio "Voice of Firestone" broadcasts. Actual TV-AM radio simulcasts of the very same "Voice of Firestone" program began only on 5 September 1949. A documented candidate for first true simulcast may well be NBC's "We the People." Toscanini's NBC Symphony performance of 15 March 1952 is perhaps a first instance of radio/TV simulcasting of a concert, predating the much-heralded rock concert simulcasts beginning in

3408-517: The randomly assigned call letters of KYW. At first, it was jointly operated by Westinghouse and Commonwealth Edison , with Westinghouse later taking over as sole operator. Through the financial support of Samuel Insull , and the cooperation of Mary Garden , director general of the Chicago Opera Company , KYW's initial broadcasts consisted of the opera company's entire six-day-a-week winter season schedule. Ten microphones were installed across

3479-444: The records of the FCC, the station in Philadelphia on 1060 kHz merely underwent two call letter and ownership changes, taking place in 1956 and 1965. However most KYW histories follow the path of the call letters, and refer to KYW moving from Philadelphia to Cleveland in 1956, then returning to Philadelphia nine years later. Based on its responsibilities as an NBC-owned outlet, WRCV carried all of NBC's network programming, such as

3550-680: The sales of its radio receivers. This initial station proved successful, so in 1921 the company developed plans to set up additional stations in major population centers, including WJZ in Newark, New Jersey (now WABC in New York City), and WBZ , originally in Springfield, Massachusetts , and now in Boston . It also wanted to start a station in Chicago. The Westinghouse station was first licensed on November 15, 1921, as Chicago's first broadcasting outlet, with

3621-631: The same market and broadcaster. MASN and MASN2 simulcast a single feed of the games with a commentary team featuring personalities from both teams, featuring Jim Hunter and Bob Carpenter alternating play-by-play duties, and the teams' color commentators . This arrangement ended in 2014, with both channels now originating their own Orioles- and Nationals-specific telecasts as normal. A more recent trend by sports broadcasts have been alternate feeds offering different viewing options, including specialty camera angles, alternative commentary, or enhanced in-game statistics and analysis. In 2021, ESPN introduced

3692-406: The same time, using videoconferencing equipment. In many public safety agencies, simulcast refers to the broadcasting of the same transmission on the same frequency from multiple towers either simultaneously, or offset by a fixed number of microseconds. This allows for a larger coverage area without the need for a large number of channels, resulting in increased spectral efficiency . This comes at

3763-509: The screen. The band Grateful Dead and their concert "Great Canadian Train Ride" in 1970 was the first TV broadcast of a live concert with FM simulcast. In the 1970s WPXI in Pittsburgh broadcast a live Boz Scaggs performance which had the audio simultaneously broadcast on two FM radio stations to create a quadrophonic sound, the first of its kind. The first such transmission in the United Kingdom

3834-592: The simulcast often involves the transmission of wagering information to a central site, so that all bettors may bet in the same betting pool , as well as the broadcast of the race, or bet from home as they watch on a network such as TVG Network or the Racetrack Television Network . The regional sports network MASN previously used simulcasts for MLB games played between the Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals —regional rivals who share

3905-565: The studios and sales operations of WCAU. The move made KYW the easternmost U.S. radio station with a call sign beginning with "K". When KYW moved to Philadelphia, it changed from NBC Blue to NBC Red , predecessor of modern-day NBC, an affiliation it maintained during the remainder of the 1930s and throughout the 1940s; KYW was thus unaffected when, in 1942, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) compelled RCA to divest itself of one of its two radio networks, resulting in

3976-470: The studios moved one half-block to 400 Market Street in Center City Philadelphia , which allowed for the construction of the National Museum of American Jewish History. In March 2014, KYW radio and television relocated to the sixth floor of 1555 Hamilton Street in Philadelphia, in what was initially referred to on-air as the "CBS Broadcast Center". In November 2017, CBS Radio merged with Entercom , which

4047-416: The trade was NBC's desire to acquire an owned-and-operated television station in the fourth-largest American television market. NBC had to receive a waiver for the swap because KYW and NBC Radio's New York City flagship , WRCA (now WFAN ) were both clear channel stations. At the time, the FCC normally did not allow common ownership of clear channel stations with overlapping nighttime coverage. After clearing

4118-532: The weekend Monitor magazine-style program. Philadelphia radio personality Hy Lit briefly worked at WRCV during the first year of NBC ownership, hosting a local rock-and-roll program and an adult standards show for the NBC network. WRCV adopted a big band format featuring swing music popular during the pre-rock era. Almost immediately after the NBC-Westinghouse trade was finalized, Westinghouse complained to

4189-459: Was a broadcast by the BBC in 1926 of a Halle Orchestra concert from Manchester, using the wavelengths of the regional stations and Daventry. In its earliest days, the BBC often transmitted the same programme on the "National Service" and the "Regional Network". An early use of the word "simulcast" is from 1925. Between 1990 and 1994, the BBC broadcast a channel of entertainment (Radio 5) which offered

4260-492: Was available on the Radio 2000 service. This could be selected using a button labeled simulcast on many televisions manufactured before 1995. Radio programs have been simulcast on television since the invention thereof however, as of recent, perhaps the most visible example of radio shows on television is The Howard Stern Show , which currently airs on Sirius Satellite Radio as well as Howard TV . Another prominent radio show that

4331-470: Was broadcast to the Satellaview unit to provide the basic game and game sounds, Nintendo's partner, satellite radio company St.GIGA , simultaneously broadcast the musical and vocal portion of the game via radio. These two streams were combined at the Satellaview to provide a unified audiotrack analogous to stereo. The term "simulcast" (describing simultaneous radio/television broadcast) was coined in 1948 by

4402-470: Was commonplace in American households, broadcasters would air a high fidelity version of a television program's audio portion over FM stereo simultaneous with the television broadcast. PBS stations were the most likely to use this technique, especially when airing a live concert. It was also a way of allowing MTV and similar music channels to run stereo sound through the cable-TV network. This method required

4473-485: Was designed to serve a dual purpose, of providing an agricultural service, and for testing the practicality of using shortwave transmitters to link together radio networks, with KFKX receiving much of its programming by shortwave from KDKA in Pittsburgh. In 1927 the project was abandoned, although it was announced that the KFKX programming was being consolidated with KYW. Westinghouse now controlled two stations in addition to KYW in

4544-528: Was held up for nearly four years until the FCC issued a final decision in August 1964. The Commission renewed NBC's licenses for WRCV radio and television, on the condition that the 1956 station swap with Westinghouse be reversed. RKO General initially contested the FCC's decision, but soon gave up its efforts and bowed out of the competition. Following nearly a year of appeals by NBC, Westinghouse regained control of WRCV-AM-TV on June 19, 1965, and subsequently restored

4615-499: Was located in Region 4, while the reallocation provisions had reserved 1020 kHz for use in Region 2, a grouping of mid-Atlantic states. Westinghouse fought a long legal battle, attempting to keep KYW operating as a clear channel station on 1020 in Chicago. Finally it proposed moving the station to a Region 2 location, settling on Philadelphia. However, numerous other stations made alternative proposals to be assigned this allocation, and

4686-469: Was on 14 November 1972, when the BBC broadcast a live classical concert from the Royal Albert Hall on both BBC2 and Radio 3. The first pop/rock simulcast was almost two years later, a recording of Van Morrison 's London Rainbow Concert simultaneously on BBC2 TV and Radio 2 (see It's Too Late to Stop Now ) on 27 May 1974. Similarly, in the 1980s, before Multichannel Television Sound or home theater

4757-403: Was rebranded as AM and ceased simulcasting on Magic Talk, becoming a TV-only format. Following the acquisition of the assets of the professional wrestling promotion World Championship Wrestling (WCW) by the rival World Wrestling Federation (WWF), a segment simulcast between their two flagship programs— WCW Monday Nitro on TNT (which was airing its series finale from Panama City ) and

4828-518: Was simulcast on television is Imus in the Morning , which until the simulcast ended in 2015, aired throughout the years on MSNBC , RFD-TV and Fox Business Network , in addition to its radio broadcast distributed by Citadel Media . Multiple sports talk radio shows, including Mike & Mike , The Herd with Colin Cowherd and Boomer and Carton also are carried on television, saving those networks

4899-440: Was stated to be a COVID-19 -related measure.
