Fernseh KCP-40 FarbKamera

I didn't know (GTV ?) had KCP-40's. Wow, good for them--explains why the PQ was so sumptuous on "Hey Hey.."

I understand NWS-9 in Adelaide had Fernseh's resulting in fabulous PQ on Humphrey Bear Show for instance: smooth, detailed, spectrally balanced & extended with unbelievable flesh tones.

I also understand that Fernseh stuck with 30mm tubes while "innovative" Philips LDK-5 went with smaller 1" tubes. Switch off the 'contour correction' on an LDK-5 and they were awful soft. So with all that picture crispening, the Philips were harsh & worse S/N by comparison to KCP's.
