What?

There were several variations of the color indicator as far as front-panel appearance went; some sets, particularly Motorola, had the color light behind a multi-color lens, while RCA had its color indicator mounted (on some roundies of the '50s) so that it illuminated the three color controls on the set's front panel when a color program was on. I don't recall when that started or ended, but it must have been in the '50s as my 1964 Sears Silvertone 21" roundie, a CTC12 clone, did not have such an indicator.[/QUOTE]

I have had or possess every RCA color set to 1966. I worked on them for over 30 years. Which ones had a color indicator of which I have never seen before?? And where was it? Motorola had a little star on the tuner panel but never paid any attention to it if it did work.
