The Kuba Porta-color that everyone refers to, has no resemblance to the U.S. model, outside of the cabinet, CRT, yoke, convergence assembly and flyback transformer.
BTW, that's what makes this hobby interesting.  |
Sadly, My Teleton is long gone, but here is a thread on a UK forum of the same model set, there's a PDF link that explains the weird decoder they had....

Maybe I'm wrong about it being a USA made set--Possibly it was some Japanese or maybe even Chinese origin set!
--It just sorta Looked USA made to me at the time years ago, Steel cabinet etc,--, Has all USA designation valves, like 17JZ8, 3AT2 etc....
