My Westy
I acquired my Westinghouse a couple of years ago from a lady that
Lives about 10 miles up the road, I recapped the set and shortly After replaced a defective on/off switch.that all that was done.I have Had 2 ct100 over the years and the westy has better picture and Color. It's unusual color lock works well. I noticed the set that Harry Posted has a chassis at the bottom also, I do not--- is that an audio Amp?the set is large and kind of ugly -- but I love it. |

Then came the boom of auto correction circuit. ACC was the first in the CTC-4 i think?Then came auto flesh circuits they pulled the phase of the chroma demodulator for a color close to flesh even closer. The auto flesh circuits that operated on color difference signals were less obnoxious than those that pulled the color sub-carrier. Does anyone know if the Westinghouse have an ACC circuit?? Does it use a standard demodulator circuit? |

The thing about RCA's auto color that I didn't like was the setting of color level based on average chroma level. This resulted in the color level turning up or down based on scene content, and I often saw obvious failures when the scene cut to talent wearing bright red clothing. It did result in "calendar color" (somewhat oversaturated on low-saturation scenes), which the public seemed to like. I PO'd someone I interviewed with at RCA once when I told him this was not a good idea in my opinion. The hue pulling circuit was invented by my colleague Ted Rzeszewski at Motorola. For some reason, Motorola never used it, but licensed it to RCA. |
