Fill in the blanks.

1. Brightness variations of the picture information are in the Y signal.

2. The hue 180° out of phase with red is a cyan.

3. Greater p-p amplitude of the 3.58 MHz chrominance signal indicates more saturation.

4. The interfering beat frequency of 920 kHz is between the 3.58 MHz color subcarrier and the 4.5 MHZ intercarrier sounds.

5. The hue of color sync phase is yellow green.

6. I signal has color information for 1.3 MHz bandwidth.

7. “A fully saturated color is mostly white.” –it is a false statement.

8. The color with the most luminance is yellow.

9. The hue of a color 90° leading sync burst phase is cyan.

10. The average voltage value of the 3.58 MHz modulated chrominance signal is the brightness of the color.

11. The second IF value for color in receivers, for any station, is 3.58 MHz.

12. If the 3.58 MHz C amplifier in the receiver does not operate, the result will be no color.
