Yes, 1960 was about the turning point when Motorola started using some non US made components, especially in their radios. In fact, that 1961 Motorola 23" b/w table set I posted a couple weeks ago had no foreign components which was somewhat of a surprise to me. It must have been one of the last "All American" Motorola TV's aside from the occasional Euro made tubes sometimes found in domestic sets.

Also, I should have been more clear though regarding the TS-924 set. This is a Motorola design in terms of cabinet styling, but entirely built by Sharp. Sharp essentially only needed to adapt their chassis to it.
