When was color added to broadcast television in the US?
The first color broadcasts to the public were in 1953. It was a commercial failure as the new color televisions were not compatible with the existing black and white broadcasts and so to receive color and black and white broadcasts demanded two separate televisions. The service was withdrawn after a few months. In 1955, the NTSC color standard was implemented as a national standard with RCA being the first to broadcast color services. The same color broadcast system has remained in use until the recent change to digital transmission.
Why won't a 1080P TV receive a 1080P signal?
Broadcast television currently does not use 1080p. The HD formats in use at present are 720p and 1080i. The "i" stands for interlaced and it means that on a single pass of the screen half of the image is built up. The second pass sees the remainder of the image added to the first half. A full image is delivered 25 or 30 times each second. A 1080p signal delivers a full image on every pass, 50 or 60 times each second. 1080p therefore needs double the amount of data compared to 1080i. Broadcast infrastructure and the extra bandwidth requirements prevent 1080p being broadcast. 1080p is limited at present to Bluray and other local HD sources such as computers and game consoles. Don't expect to see 1080p from your television service provider any time soon. The 1080p identification on the television says that it will display 1080p but of course can only do this with a 1080p incoming signal.
Was cable made to stop ads?
The purpose of cable TV is not to eliminate commercial advertisement, but to provide more channels with better reception than you can get by means of a TV antenna. Cable started initially by providing regular broadcast television to areas with poor reception. As cable became more widespread, cable-only channels were added, some commercial-free fee-based ones, and some commercial channels. If you check your cable guide, you will find that MANY of the cable-only channels have commericials.
