1966 motorola 23 inch color

Fun thread. This is exactly what made TV fun for this "accidental tech" in the mid-70's.

Crazy Color is what I call Motorola's method, now that I read the post from JDPylon explaining it.

GE had a wacky method for color as well. It seemed like Zenith took "re-inventing color demodulation" to the right level.

I still want to find one of these in the worst way....R U Making any trips south Timmy?

Admiral used the same color demod circuit. So did a few other makes, including a Japanese firm.
There was another odd-ball color demod circuit, used at the end of the tube era. It used a 6MK8, or it's series string variants. Magnavox, Warwick and possibly a few others used it.

Didn't Zenith call it " chromatic brain ".
The 14A9C50 used the round 9 pin IC. The 12A12C52 used the small PC board, with DIP IC on it.
