Keep in mind, there were no coaxial cable networks in the year 1969 or 1972. There weren't even sophisticated video relay stations at that time.
I told myself I would not do this again but you have no clue regarding the Television Transmission capabilities back it the days of the Moon Shot. I retired from Verizon after 31 years and a total of 40 years in telecommunications field. I was trained as a technician by the USAF and worked for ITT, Sprint, MCI and Verizon
Between early wired networks and today’s fiber optics sat a system of microwave relay towers transmitting information from coast to coast across the United States. Built in the early 1950s, this line-of-sight network spanned the continent using zig-zag patterns to avoid signal overlap. It conveyed phone conversations and television signals from the era of the Kennedy assassination through the resignation of Nixon.
This is the 1960 AT&T Long Lines network map. It carried TV signals for the big three networks across the country and that was before the Apollo program.. You act like you know everything but you come across as a pompous ignorant jerk. Please note that the map itself is labeled broadband. One more thing, the connections between the radios and the multiplex stages were connected with Coax Cable and BNC connectors.

Really? LOL... That STILL doesn't explain the 1.5 second remote control relay (across half a BILLION miles) to the toy “Apollo 17” fakery here:

And how did that signal get from the tracking station in Australia and to Houston and back for the “return” TV uplink back to the “moon” in 1.5 seconds?
LOL again.
We STILL have lag on our cell phones today!
And what kind of batteries ran all this equipment on the moon?
And if Alaskans couldn't get live News reports in 1972 (as per Sarah Palin’s memoirs) but had to wait a week for the video reels to get flown in, how did Houston get relays from the Australian tracking station “live” to enable the remote from the Lunar Rover that was left on the “moon”?
LOL.
There were problems with live international transmissions in 1985 during the infamous Bowie/Jagger video hook up during Live Aid... and this was with the best engineers and recording technicians in the world! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Live_Aid
Your post reminds me of the time here on FR, when I was discussing how GIs after WWII had the theory about Ike's implication in the strange death of Patton after a 15mph car accident... and some FReeper reprimanded me for even daring to discuss this by telling me “his grandfather was Patton's chauffeur”! and that I didn't know what I was talking about...
