There were something like eight CTC-11 chassis (11A, 11B, etc.) with several different tuners.

The tuners have their own parts numbers: KRK98C, KRK98D, KRK98J, KRK98K, KRK99C, KRK99D, KRK99J, KRK99K. Some of the VHF tuners were paired with UHF tuners. All of that is listed in the Sams manual. If your Silvertone chassis was actually built by RCA, perhaps its tuner shows a part number that matches one of those.

I'm not a big fan of the CTC-11 tuner, which seems rather cheap. I cleaned mine very, very carefully. Lately it has been getting funky. Maybe just worn out. I could pull the chassis and clean it again, but I have so-o-o-o-o many other more pressing things to do.
