It is electrically and mechanically the same as the RA-103. I have a dumont 103 doghouse, and compared chassis with my S-C TV-10. A few of the lytic can's sections were shuffled, and one or two other can lytic sections were made tubulars in the S-C IIRC, but the RA-103 had several production changes throughout it's production life which may account for even those differences.

Heck, I even restored my S-C TV-10 off the RA-103 schematic and the connections all jibed.
