Help ID RCA 13" TV similar to EGC330s from ~1981

For several years now, I've been trying to nail down RCA's model number for the RCA-made Radio-Shack-branded TV used to exhibit the TRS-80 Color Computer 1 in 1981-1982 advertisements.




Radio Shack sold the TV separately under catalog # 26-3010.

Trolling ebay today, I find this RCA EGC330S that looks remarkably close, nearly identical case right down to the speaker grille and all-silver color, but still has a single rotary channel selector instead of Radio Shack's 10-button control with a 2-digit LED display above it.





Has anyone ever seen a model number (or a Sams Photofact) for one with the 10-button control with a 2-digit LED display above it?

For reference, the most common version found is the 2-knob RCA EJR330W, which is the same overall case, but with different style slots in the speaker grille, simulated woodgrain over most of the surface, and of course two tuner knobs instead of the 10-keypad/LED display.


Much appreciated, thank you.

PS, this reddit thread from a year ago asks the same question, but comes up empty... https://www.reddit.com/r/RadioShack/...original_color
