I always had the impression that even after that point they still maintained some sort of association, because in 1947, when the founder of Brazilian television, mister Assis Chateaubriand, went to the United States to buy the equipment for two TV stations, the equipment for one station was supplyed by RCA and for the other was supplyed by GE.
