Curious about a few things:
a) At what point did WGN replace its TK-41's with more modern TK-44A/B class cameras (and, later, TK-45A)?
b) How long did the TK-26 chains at WGN last, and what color chains (I presume TK-27 or 28) replaced them and when?

Contrast this with their New York sister station WPIX (Channel 11), which didn't go color until 1965 (the first New York indie commercial station to air anything in color - at first, solely via film and slides with RCA TK-26's - was WOR-TV [Channel 9], beginning in 1960; but that station was the last to have all local origination in color, in late 1967).
