looks like a ctc15.i have 2 of those style tuners.ctc15 and 16 are in my opinion the best of the rca roundies.those crts rivals any other sets and reasonably easy to keep going.that looks like a beauty,so grab it now!

Agreed. 15's and 16's are die hard sets! I had a couple of 16's.

Captainmoody has spoken for this one, so unfortunately I won't get it. But the bright side is another VK'er will be enjoying it, so it won't end up as a fishtank!

Early 15, before UHF was mandatory-or, I think they might have used that panel on some 12's? Not sure about that.

This is a late CTC-15 making it a 1964 model. The CRT bezel is your biggest clue indicating an early CTC-15 from 1963 or a late CTC-15 from 1964. In this case, a late-style 1964 CTC-15 CRT bezel is seen on this RCA roundie. CTC-16s also used this exact same CRT bezel as well for 1965. On a CTC-15, check the CRT bezel and you will know if it was made in 1963 or 1964, it's that simple when dating CTC-15s.
