I mentioned this interesting post to my wife and she said ... "I've seen it in action!" She recalled when she was a kid and watching TV in her room (a small black and white one she had until the early '70s) that she ran in to tell her mother that her TV was showing colour pictures! All she remembers is seeing "reds and greens" - but I thought I'd mention it. That would have been in Illinois, USA, I think, in the very late '60s.
