A little off topic here. But in response to the previous post. We had an RCA color tv in 1963. I recall very well when NBC New York threw to the local anchors at their Dallas affiliate WBAP-TV. The Dallas video was live in color. I have this on tape. I remember that at first there was picture and no sound and going back to New York, NBC's Frank McGee apoligized and explained they were having technical difficulties. They then threw it to Dallas again and had sound and no picture. Back to NBC. Finally they got it right and the color picture and sound synced up. WBAP provided live color cut ins several times and then for some reason went to B&W. I also recall on the next day NBC provided a concert of classical/patriotic music in honor of the president. This was a color telecast from Chicago. I recall no network color coverage involving network anchors.
