leadlike, as you may know, the Royal Sovereign came in two versions. The RA119A featured a RF HV regulated supply, a continuous tuner, and a very deluxe design (as DuMont was wont to do). The second version, (my set), the RA119B1 has a conventional click tuner, flyback, and a very pedestrian design. The Crosley design is their own. The TV chassis is very similar to some other Crolsey B&W sets of the same vintage, but the HV supply (I believe) is unique. I am really looking forward to getting it restored and see how it performs.
