Mongolian TV Broadcasting. Initially all programmers were broadcast live but in December
1971 the Mongolian TV studios opened and an other important step towards improving the
quality of the images and enabling the pre-recording of documentaries and short films as
taken. This in turn enabled the broadcast scheduled to become much more varied and

generation of equipment made in Japan, France and Russia and this, along with a new TV
center being put into commission, made the transition to color possible.
