Craigslist RCA Roundie
Here are a couple pictures of the set I picked up yesterday off craigslist. The picture tube is a Hi-Lite H21GVP22 that was installed in 1970. If anyone out there has a spare cover for the controls that I am missing I would be interested in it.

Nice set! That's a "high-end" tube in there as well. IIRC HI-Lite is a Grade A or AA tube (all new) I think Colorama were the rebuilds. Weird the control cover is missing. There was a CTC-20 listed recently that was missing its control cover as well.

WOW very nice looking tv ! Be careful of those pc boards while you work on it.
The picture does not show, is there a speaker on both sides...? Very rich looking cabinet !

Nice score Sam! Have you had a chance to check the emissions on the tube yet? That's a set that should really be in your living room, as nice as that cabinet is. You should be able to come up with a cover for the controls eventually, they built a lot of CTC-15's.

As far as the cabinet, unfortunately the owner had a blanket over it while it was in a storage unit. I'm guessing during the summer it got so hot in the unit that some of the fibers fused with the finish. I tried to remove some of it but it just took the finish off with it. Still presentable but if I wanted it to look perfect it would need some work. |

I see it also has the RCA UHF converter kit installed. That was another one of RCA's mysteries! |

Nice set!
A version of that same control panel was on a higher-end BW chassis KCS136ZD I had once.

Well.....I ended up with this set. Sam decided he didn't have the room for it, so I went and picked it up this morning. I'll start a new thread......
