Yes, it's the CTC-11 that sits in my office; that pic was taken during restoration.



You can read the whole story at http://antiqueradio.org/RCACTC-11Television.htm .

I remember the broken wire to the convergence coil during your resto.

Others may disagree but the CTC11 is the best RCA roundie IMHO. Not just saying that because I have the blonde version of this set but....

With color circuit both advanced AND simplified by 1961, the hard-wired color stages, the big HV cage and the generally solid construction that seems to resist the ravages of heat that later RCA's suffered.

Whenever I see that captioned picture come up (again) on Facebook, I post a link to Phil's original article.

The CTC-10 has the same control layout. I own one of them.
