Snagged a Crosley set...
I got this old set off a piano customer of mine. Not sure yet what the model # is, as I have only just obtained this piece. Anyone with ideas as to what model this is, and where I can go to get an escutcheon plate for where it is obviously missing at the channel selector knob...I'm all ears... Many thanks!
 I did try to make the set operate about a year ago on a previous tuning visit, but could not get anything but a hum. So I suspect that a re-cap is essential. First I'll jumper in the basic filters just to see if I can develop HV, and assess the CRT. It's been many years since I've tackled a project like this--and I have several other old sets now to do as well--most of them round monochrome CRT sets--and one rectangular set--the picture tube in that having been manufactured at a plant in nearby Springfield, MA.

Looks like a 630TS clone, all right. I like the cabinet.
This article has some 630TS restoration notes, as well as factory installation and service manuals. http://antiqueradio.org/RCA630TSTelevision.htm Phil Nelson

Fada made a clone just like it too, I wouldn't mind owning any of the models like it. Neat looking set.
