The first public television broadcasts started in January 1929 from the BBC studios in London. They used the television technology developed by John Logie Baird which he demonstrated in 1925 for the first time. The broadcasts were somewhat experimental but nonetheless they were public and the televisions to receive the broadcasts were available to purchase throughout the country.
Experimental broadcasts first took place while Franklin Roosevelt was President. Commercial broadcasts began when Harry Truman was in office.
