Equipment and Techniques for Simplified Testing of Color TV Receivers

Complete performance tests of a color TV receiver may require several man-weeks of testing time when using conventional test methods, such as those specified in Hazeltine Report 8020. A large time saving can be made by the use of two newly developed equipments to measure a number of the more important characteristics of the chrominance and luminance channels of a receiver. The purpose of the present report is to describe these two equipments, their operation, and uses.
