Great information,thanks! A fascinating level of engineering went into color, as we all know.
The takeaway for me is that if the old NTSC standard was the limiting factor, then why did RCA attempt this; and how come in the 80s? Surely, modifying the IF stage on all new sets was out of the question, no?
I'm in the minority who actually prefers proper color rendition over all else. I mean, I don't even think standard definition television was all that bad, since I watch zero sports and never watch a screen size bigger than 27".
Having seen proper Conrac broadcast phosphors being fed from a live camera, nothing can top that at home. I have attempted to compile a bunch of analog studio-grade video gear for at home use. The limiting factor is always the source material.
