  • Notes

  • The Radio Craftsmen model RC200 (as written on the name plate) is mentioned by SAMS Photofact but we have not many details. It is a high quality chrome plated chassis with selectable picture tube to be put in custom cabinets. Options were 16" or 19" round and 21" rectangular. With additional cost of 43 $ at least in 1952 one could optain a 24" picture tube (24AP4). The model allows a combination of detent and variable tuning which allows to tune the FM band. A magic Eye is employed for tuning. The tube line-up is the same as the chassis RC-201. The set is for AC opration and consumes 225 Watts. In 1951 the price was 253 $ and in 1952 240 $. Picture tube not specified, Bridge rectifier.
