So my understanding is that the "TBC" of the day moved the luminance only 140ns to match the chroma and that was the small hor shift you saw (on match frame only edits). I think later the Ampex Zeus was the only TBC to know about this and "fix" them. I think it was a mode you could turn on the prevent this problem.

Trevor and Tony,

A half-cycle of subcarrier (H shift) is 140 ns. here in NTSC land. 

Been there, done that...
