That RCA sounds like fun!
I'm trying to recall if I've seen one of those on here? I very much doubt anything like that made it over here to NZ unless if someone moved from the United States here and thought that their TV would work here.
I'm trying to think about some of the NZ portable tube sets that were difficult to work on, not that I've seen many but do recall a retired TV guy telling me all about this locally made portable that was so awful to work on and all crammed in etc, he hated them. Maybe thats why there are none left! I do have another couple of NZ made portables which I'll have to post up on here for your guys interest too

Kinda doubt it, sounds like you guys were trying to nurture yr own electronics industry.
