Edit: I just checked and 126 was Silvertone's code for RCA and this does check out on some RCA built Silvertone televisions I've seen.

OT:: But do you have ANY idea who made the Silvertone stereo chassis with the "456" model code??

I have one or two like that. One with P-P 6973 outs.

I don't know of any codes out of the 100 range. The 456 is probably a model number. Sears used the format XXX.XXX (the first three digits being the manufacturer) for their chassis codes.

No it IS the mfr#. It is 456.5141 or something like that. I am SURE the 456 is the MFR --but WHO--it is a pretty nicely built chassis too.

528 was Warwick, and 132 was Arvin. Not sure about 456 but I too have seen it, I believe on early 50's stuff.
