I am SURE some RCA sets did, as far back as the CTC131/132. The 169 did NOT do so, nor any others between the 131 and the 179 or so, such as the 180 series. I KNOW the CTC 195/197 DOES use AKB. Not sure if the "HD" chassis of the CTC 170/172 did or not--they are rare anyway. (but i DO have a complete, somewhat working LB from a ctc-170 wiht the 9" tubes I saved..) Not sure about the 179/189/188, but as you know it is a complex, troublesome chassis to work on...do NOT forget about the tuner wrap problem--this chassis DOES have that problem--in SPADES.
