The 4 knob version with the tube rectifiers, was a strange model for RCA. It has a 21MHZ IF and a penthode tuner, 6J6/6CB6. It must've been the BOTL model, that year.
The 4 knob version, with the voltage doubler, has the cascode tuner, 6BQ7A/6X8 and the 41MHZ IF.
RCA was an early player, with the 41MHZ IF.
