Did RCA make any post-mid '70's steel cabinet TV's?

I remember seeing a late '70's CTC 8x or 9x series chassis (the one with the MDR regulator module) 25" set with ultra-sonic remote and motorized tuner that was housed in a cheap masonite wooden table model cabinet. I can't remember if it had provisions for screw on legs or not.

It seems that Zenith stayed with such designs as rounded corner 23V CRT's, metal cabinets, large screen B&W sets, and consoles on legs way later than RCA or any other brand. In the early '80's, I think Zenith still had a following from the older crowd who would still buy, and preferred, these older designs.

Speaking of metal cabinet solid state RCA's, the only ones I ever saw were the 25" CTC68 Lyceum/Mural TV's for institutional use, a similar 21" institutional set, and a few consumer level 21" sets.
