Why is it that whenever there is a big explosion in a show, old tv sets go on the fritz for a sec.....?

Question

Is this due to EMF or signal? It happens when the explosion is "white hot/white" instead of red and orange?

my tv is an old zenith from the 80s (no rca jacks, mono)

When it happens the sceen goes into static/white noise mode for the duration of the explosion. One example is footage of Nuke bomb tests.I dont know if it has anything to do with color/signal saturation???

Answer 1

i dont seem to have that problem
