11.5 RADIO & TELEVISION<br />

Turkish television operates on the PAL system (Phase Alternating Line), a color encoding system that<br />

differs from NTSC and SECAM. PAL system uses a vertical resolution of 576 lines (usually with a<br />

horizontal resolution of 720 or 704 pixels), with interlaced resolution, which is not compatible with<br />

televisions produced for NTSC markets (such as USA). Bringing a television from USA, therefore,<br />

isn’t practical.<br />

Regular broadcasting, cable, satelite, and digital television are available in Turkey, with satelite<br />

television offering the most selection of foreign language options and foreign programming.<br />

11.5.1. STATE TELEVISION<br />

The state-controlled television network of channels produces all its programs in Turkish. Foreign<br />

films are often shown, though usually dubbed in Turkish. The second channel broadcasts news in<br />

English every evening and occasionally shows films in English with Turkish subtitles. There are now<br />

seven state channels in all. There are also many privately-owned TV channels.<br />
