    That's pretty neat. Weather reports on St Patrick's Day could show a talking head floating around the map.

    Good ole WTMJ, Milwaukee WI. I used to work at WISC 3 in Madison.

    These are in the list of top 10 problems that TV engineers, well, like myself, have had to deal with....

    1 - Anchors who wear WHITE.
    2 - Anchors who wear the same color as the Croma Key Wall.
    3 - Anchors who wear Suit Coats that have very fine Pinstripe Patterns.
    Leads to a heck of a Moiré pattern problem.

    4 - Anchors who see 1,2,3 and still do it anyway!

    I think the biggest problem we had when I worked for WHCP was a Sunday morning church show with woman preacher. I don't think they knew how to use the white balance on the camera because everyone of her shows she looked like she was pure green. We had to turn the tint over so far we almost broke the knob. She still did not look right even with the tint adjusted. From what I was told we complained about it but the producers said there was no problem.
