I think the 10JA solid state "portacolor II" was discontinued fairly quickly because it had problems and they went back to the tube chassis. The tube chassis was around until at least '77, when it was replaced by the solid state AA (and, later, similar AB and AC chassis). I don't think GE ever called these a "portacolor"; but, they are unofficially called the "portacolor III" by collectors. The AA/AB/AC chassis was used in 10", 13", and 17" sets.
