Hello everyone!

This is my first time posting and hopefully someone can assist me.

I came across an unusual (at least I have never seen this set) Westinghouse console. The model number is H-17C287 "Tutone" which I have figured out refers to the blond cabinet since the second model number listed on the tag (H-17C288 "mahogony") kinda speaks for itstelf.

I have checked several search engines, reference guides and websites including Nostalgiair.com and have not been able to find this model to obtain a schematic for it.

It is a tv/phono combo. The set appears to be from the late 50's or early 60's and employs a 17" rectangular CRT and utilizes a large, single pc board containing the bulk of the tubes, caps, etc. There are two secondary chassis assemblies that comprise the HV section and the VHF tuner. UHF was an option but not included in this model.

I haven't checked it yet, but the turntable appears to be a VM (Voice of Music) built unit.

The only numbers I have been able to locate on the chassis are "V2366" and "3122X" which I have also tried to locate unsuccessfully.

Any help on narrowing this one down would be greatly appreciated.

Also, and I am sure I am not alone in this, I am seeking a CTC-100 and RCA Model 2000 sets.

Thanks in advance everyone!

According to my sams index Westinghouse V2366 is in 439-3.
But H17C287 - H17C291 is in 446-2.
Either places it in 1959.
