OR, did RCA quit using those old designations by 1981?
Also what's the stereo and turntable like? Do they work? I know you've been focused (no pun intended ) on the TV portion of your set.
Really, really NICE!

I think, if im not mistaken, these CRTs were from other places with an RCA label slapped on them, its not a bad tube, but doesn't look as good as a Sylvania re-85, which,i think, look the best. As for the stereo, I put new caps in, looked promising at one point, had some sound,now back to low output on both channels. Some germanium transistors in there so it will be a bit of a project. Problem is I order parts as I need them so when something else goes wrong I am stuck til the new parts arrive.
