Was this the same RCA plant as the one in the United States of America, or am I thinking of some other radio manufacturer?
BTW, I don't think RCA in New Jersey even existed during World War II, since most radio manufacturing was shut down tighter than a drum for the duration of the war. As I understand it (I am 66 years old and had not been born yet when WWII began), radio repair shops were doing makeshift repairs on radios just to get them working (in some cases just enough to get local stations) at that time, due to lack of proper repair parts.
