  This chassis was built by RCA for GE and is an almost exact equivalent of RCA model 280. The only differences are the cabinet and the shield shape used on the front of the control group.The RCA 280 chassis wiring diagram schematic is correct down to the color of the wires.

  This chassis receives 2 bandwidths. Broadcast band 540K.C. - 1500 K.C. and High Band 1400 K.C. - 2800 K.C. Tuning indication is accomplished using a "shadow tuning" needle. The closer on a station the receiver is the farther the tuning needle will move to the right hand side of its range.
