GSN ran a color episode of To Tell The Truth recently, and it was interesting to see how mild, yet bright, the Norelco color was compared to RCA’s cameras. WGN used TK41s in the 50s and 60s (and maybe even later than that), and on surviving Bozo and Garfield Goose episodes, the color looks very harsh at times.
Good cameras. The color output of those cameras was sort of different from the 41’s. The 41’s color was a “hit you in the face” kind of color and the PC 70’s had a softer, “less hit you in the face kind of color” in my opinion.
CBS limited colorcasting for years because it didn’t want to use RCA technology (or help to sell RCA sets)…

I worked on those in 1970 WFRV TV Green Bay WI … Now we have the new media…

I dream be owner of a Norelco PC60 or PC70
