This one is something not so special, caused some electric behavior of such monitors/TVs, not the Plus/4 itself.
Measuring colours: there is an other problem with different monitors,
namely the gamma. If you try to synchronize colours on different monitors those are colours going to never match on other monitors...
(I want to told with this: you are not able to match colours on PC monitors, because you are not able to connect Plus/4 and PC to the same monitor...)
