I'm not so sure the TV chassis is solid state since the power consumption is 360 watts. Pull the back off and look for a CTC-something stanped on the chassis. The tube chassis of that period were the CTC38 and CTC39 series. The solid state chassis were the CTC40, CTC44, and CTC46. The 38 chassis was around from '68 until about '70. The '39 was around from around '70 until '74. The solid state 40 would be between '68 and '70. The 44 would be around '70 or '71. The modular 46 chassis would be around '72 or '73. Starting in '69, RCA sets had the RCA block logo plastered on them. Prior to '69, they had "RCA Victor" on them. I have a late "RCA Victor" with a CTC38 chassis with date codes from early '69.
