I bet it would have overloaded the typical household electrical circuit; if that thing sucked up one more watt! If I recall, a base model CTC-10 uses about 375 watts without a tuner/amp, let alone a remote chassis (with about 6 additional tubes at that time).

Since Steve points out that the first combo was a CTC-10, think this set must be 10, as it has the "COLOR rainbow emblem on the mask, and safety glass. It could be an 11, but all but one of the 11s I've seen, had bonded CRTs and no safety glass.
