Convergence I remember as no problem.

He liked color so much that when the 21CT55 came out he bought one.
In Ft. Worth we had the big advantage that all local programs
were in color, right from day 1. And there were lots of studio
productions. On the 21CT55 they looked fine too. I've told this story before.
Oh but did I mention he was 1/2 mile from the transmitter?

Hey Doug,

I bet your Uncle viewed this station break slide on his new 21CT55 back in late '54.
