It's red......

T'aint orange - the "RD" in the model number corresponds with "poppy red" in the HE Chassis/Model index. Both the cabinet and escutcheon are parts coded as poppy red. Portsmouth made set, '73, or 74, although the serial says 1975....

Cheers,

This is a 1976 model. The first set introduced in 1966 had a very course pixel pitch. Looked lousy, I wanted to buy one but couldn't justify it. Bought a 1968 Sony Trinitron KV 7010UA instead.

Later versions of the Porta color, improved the shadow mask.
