I read that.
You would think that it would be trivial to transmit on 2 channels; one
for the video and one for the sound.


Not at that time, when what most people could afford was a blooper,
although admittedly it was probably the rich who could afford Baird
Televisors
and therefore could have stretched to another set for a second channel.
