Abstract
A color-difference signal modifying apparatus for modifying a color-difference signal in a color television receiver. The apparatus gives to a color-difference signal a non-linear characteristic which approximates a theoretical characteristic for completely eliminating both luminance and chromaticity errors of a reproduced color. The apparatus is constituted by a threshold signal producing means which is supplied with a luminance signal to produce a threshold signal proportional to the luminance signal, and a gain reduction means which is supplied with the color-difference signal to decrease the gain to remove a specific portion of the color-difference signal which exceeds the threshold signal level.
