Hey Whirled One, can you post a picture of that CTC-55? this is apparently an RCA tube type set using a high focus voltage tube and solid state tripler HV supply as opposed to the 3A3 of the others...have been looking for one of these for a long time.
So far as I know all the RCA tube type consoles were more of the old school design of the CTC-38 and 39, these did have some transistors in the IF section, but otherwise were old fashioned, using a 6BK4 regulator and traditional power transformer. Seems like perhaps Admiral and some private label sets used a portable series-string chassis with compactrons in a console cabinet with 25" crt.
