Thanks, Bill,
I always wondered where RCA used those color illustrations of the
Trinoscope system from the fall 1949 hearings. Surprising to read
about the brightness of the CBS images, since the color filters on
both the camera and the receiver reduced light input and output. For
a memoir of what happened when CBS actually tried to make TV
receivers, see Sava Jacobson's brief memoir at
http://davidsarnoff.org/jac.html.
Best, Alex Magoun
