Like today, it was a single carrier system containing luminance, chroma, and sync. However, if this is a 1950 set, that would be before Philco introduced quadrature modulation to the mix. The set would include bypassed monochrome circuitry, but probably not constant luminance developed by Hazeltine; it probably used the RCA system that sampled the R, G, and B at 120 degree intervals.

Again, the set would have to be reversed engineered and its expected transmission system reproduced by Darryl's magic.
