The CTC22 may have been the only all-tube small-screen color set that looked good, and lasted. It took Zenith a few years to get that small.
Unlike most of the others, when you worked on the '22 you KNEW when it was as good as it could be. Not so much with Toshiba-Panasonic-Sanyo etc.
Admiral, Philco and Sylvania made 15LP22 sets but I did not see them.
