My understanding is that ABC (and CBS?) purchased plenty of the Norelco (Phillips in the US, to avoid trademark disputed with Philco) color cameras, and maybe NBC eventually did too. The EMI camera went to one affiliate in the midwest (it's a shame, they seemed to give nice pictures from what I've seen).

Obviously, CBS and ABC weren't too keen on funding NBC via RCA...

Not surprisingly, the GE cameras seemed to be duds. GE was weird with product quality even back then..
