rainy day projects and that CBS system...

[ceebee23]

Just reading more on the early days of NTSC color...and with the Rose Bowl coming up ...makes me think that perhaps CBS failed to market its color system well enough.... a few really high profile football or baseball matches may have helped ?? or was it really the lack of sets out there???

or was it really the CBS board was not really fussed in the end ...having made its point... and delayed RCA's plans?

I am not sure of the long distance cable/transmission issues, if any, with CBS FS color for coast to coast hookups.

But I am sure a Rose Bowl or similar in color shown in NY would have sparked interest as it did for RCA!
