I've got several GE tube color console sets but I have not worked on them in several years...hopefully I can get to them someday soon. The round set I have is almost exactly like a RCA CTC-15 inside. I think it may have a different type of tuner than an actual RCA (not nuvistor). The filter capacitors are GE brand caps but everything else seems exactly the same as a CTC-15. It worked fine the last time I tried it but the power switch had gone bad.

One of the rectangular GE tube type sets I have is a 23" and the other a 25V". The 23" has a bad crt (arcing/shorted) but I did get the chassis working. The 25V" works OK with some minor problems.
The 25" set has a lead shielded HV rectifier tube. Both of these sets are power transformer type chassis that are true GE designs.

The 19V" GE set I have is a series string set very similar to a Portacolor chassis.

I can try and get some pictures of the sets if you would like to see them.
