John,

Nice looking Philco. I like the clean contempory lines. The 1966 Philco is close, but not an exact clone of the RCA CTC-20 chassis. The chassis in the Philco has a different layout and utilizes several different tube types in various circuits. Not sure if Philco took the basic RCA CTC-20 and redesigned it to their own specs. From the look of the similar front RCA knobs, it may have been built for Philco by RCA.
