Prolly not, except maybe for some experimental stuff in the bigger cities, like New york, Chicago or Los Angeles. Stereo burst on the scene in like 1957-58.OK, I consulted "The Bible"- "Behind the Tube-a history of Broadcast Technology & Business", by Andrew Inglis, Focal Press, 1990, & it says "The National Stereophonic Radio Committee was formed in 1959 to examine methods proposed for transmitting stereo sound. After extensive studies the system proposed by GE was recommended & subsequently approved by the FCC in 1961." So there you go.-Sandy G.
