I would think at this stage all the early color sets all used the same tubes and phosphors and classic chroma demodulator gain and phase. Once phosphors shifted and people noticed that flesh tones looked different than they should designers started to spread the R-Y and B-Y demodulation angles and play with the gain ratios to get the color rendering they liked. Later went the color temperature started shifting up gains changed again.

Then came the boom of auto correction circuit. ACC was the first in the CTC-4 i think?Then came auto flesh circuits they pulled the phase of the chroma demodulator for a color close to flesh even closer. The auto flesh circuits that operated on color difference signals were less obnoxious than those that pulled the color sub-carrier.

Does anyone know if the Westinghouse have an ACC circuit?? Does it use a standard demodulator circuit?
