Same goes for Panasonic. A couple of years back, some of low-end Panny-branded sets were also made by Orion. I had an Emerson portable made back in '87 with Matsushita tube and flyback. I continue to loathe today's Panasonic sets, since I worked at a hotel and tend to see them fail more often than even the disposable 27-inch Funai sets.
About those RCAs, I have a 9-inch portable back when the portables were made in Taiwan, around the mid-1980s equipped with a Toshiba tube - but it was not as prominent as the RCA brand on the label, just on the bottom right corner in small text.
