Editing Gamma frequency

The '''Gamma frequency''' is a type of [[Wikipedia:radio|radio]] originally used by the [[Colonies]] hundreds of [[yahren]] prior to the [[Battle of Cimtar|Fall of the Twelve Colonies]]. It was capable of broadcasting audio and video signals, much like [[wikipedia:terrestrial television|television]] signals.

According to Lt. {{TOS|Boomer}}, Gamma frequencies are no longer used by the Colonials because the signals bounce around and would continue to travel outward.  Gamma frequencies can either be harmonic (a term used to describe signals limited to a short-distance) or extra-galactic.  

The Colonials employed equipment for transmission and reception of Gamma frequencies.  Captain {{TOS|Apollo}} discovers ''{{TOS|Galactica}}'' contains such equipment its last remaining, outdated [[celestial chamber]].  Apollo is able to repair the components in the chamber, which are used to record a signal that he believes may have originated from [[Earth (TOS)|Earth]]. After providing the transmission, which contains heavy interference, Boomer offers to create a Gamma frequency booster to enhance the quality of the signal reception.  

Much to Apollo's disappointment, the only recording of the Gamma frequency transmission is destroyed in the [[Battle at Galaxy's Edge|battle]] with the [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylon]] [[Basestar (TOS)|basestar]].  It is unknown whether or not Apollo manages to record the clearer transmission&mdash;which does appear to originate from Earth and is of the first [[Wikipedia:moon landing|moon landing]] {{OS|The Hand of God}}.
