From80to240(correspondingtothe fundamental keying frequency and to its third harmonic). on modulated continuous waves. Same figure as above, plus twice the modulation frequency. Transmission of still pictures .. .. Approximately the ratio between the number of picture elements 1 to be transmitted and the number of sec· onds necessary for the transmission.
