FCC Color Television Standards Timeline and Delayed Adoption
The FCC limited reception to 100 miles from 64 commercial stations and authorized stations in 1941. CBS pressed for color standards in 1946, but the commission denied the petition in 1947 and urged more experimentation. In 1950 the FCC said standards would be postponed if sets could receive both CBS color and black and white signals, while manufacturers cited engineering and manufacturing hurdles delaying a 1951 rollout.
