That set is from around '72 and uses the CTC46 series chassis. I believe that is the first upright modular color chassis for RCA and they were fine performers when working right. The power switch is most likely a bar that pushes down and it's located above the VHF channel knob. If the set does not come on, look for a red "reset button" on the back of the set, close to where the AC cord enters into the TV. Turn the set off, press this button in all the way and release it. Then, turn the set back on. If the button pops out again, you have a short somewhere on the chassis and you'll need to have it checked by a qualified TV technician.

These sets are much better built than anything currently being made and I think you'll be happy with the results.
