Composite color videos uses two color signals modulated on a
subcarrier at _____ using _____.
Terrestrial television broadcasting uses a channel _____ wide.
The picture is transmitted using _____ with carrier, and the
sound uses FM on separate carrier.
_____ and _____ travel together through the tuner and picture
_____ of a television receiver.
The sound is then converted to a separate _____ IF, in a system
known as intercarrier sound.
Color receiver use ____________________ to retrieve the
color signal.
The frequency and phase reference for the color _____ are
provided by a color burst on the black porch of the horizontal
synchronizing signal.
The _____ used in television receivers generate an electron
beam that is intensity-modulated by the video signal and deflected
horizontally and vertically by coils that surround the tube.
The beam produces an image by ______ coating on the tube
face.
Color CRTs use three electrons beams striking three different
types of phosporous that glow _____ , _____ , _____ .
Cable- television systems reduces losses by moving UHF signals
to the _____ range.
They use frequencies between channels _____ and ______
and above channel _____ .
It is often possible to localize faults in television receivers by
looking for the presence, absence, or abnormality of the _____,
_____, _____ and _____.
once the fault has been localized to one or more stages, there
are many types of specilized test _______ that can be used.
A gradual transition is underway to ________ , both for standard
definition television and for new high-definition systems.
What do you call of the ratio of the width to the height of a
television picture?
What do you call of the portion of the horizontal blanking pulse
after the sync pulse?

separately, without frequency interleaving.
It is a video system in which luma, sync, and chroma signals
(if present) are combined.
It is an alignment of the three electrons beams in a color CRT
so that they land on the same triad of color phosphor dots.
