This is a CTC-22. It is one of the earliest models of the CTC-22 as it has a manual degaussing switch. A cap was kept charged up w/B+ or boost voltage and then was discharged into the degauss coils when the switch was pressed (you can see it in one of the pictures). Later model CTC-22's used an auto degausser and had a separate UHF knob rather than having it on the VHF fine tuning as this one does. It is an all tube series string set. These RCA portables seem to have a lot fewer problems than the consoles of the same year, have never seen a bad flyback in a portable.
