DO NOT try an IF alignment !!!

By convention FT goes CW up in freq, CCW down. Effect is at CCW pix with no color & weak SND. As you go up the color starts to show & SND improves.
Beyond that point the pix starts to tear & go away, audio starts buzzing & pix gets wormy. At that point you are nearing the next channel ( up ) or
the FM band ( 88mhz + )if you are on ch 6.

Color edges are usually convergence. With color OFF they will still be there.

REMEMBER you need a good B&W TV to have a good color TV.

When color gain is minimized, the black and white picture looks great and sharp. When color gain is high enough for the picture to no longer be black and white, the smearing is visible.
