When I read your post, it reminded me (I had all but forgotten) that I had a 16"-17" Sears Silvertone metal-cabinet table TV (don't know if the chassis was an RCA clone or not) in the mid-1970s -- a trash day find. The set had a rectangular CRT, was all-channel and worked very well, even on rabbit ears in the basement, in the Cleveland suburb in which I lived at the time, although it worked much better when I connected it to the attic antenna -- especially on UHF, as I expected it would, as that area was not the best on earth for color TV reception using indoor antennas.
