Anthony,
Actually there are 5 Berkshire models: Breakfront Model B1 ($4100), Regency Model B-2 ($3200), Secretary Model B-3 ($2500), Modern Model B-4 ($2300), Contemporary Model B-5.
The hardest unit to repair is the radio chassis built for RCA by a company called ARF, the amplifier is pretty much straight forward, the TV is time consuming but quite easy to do, and because it has the same chassis group as all the '46-'49 RCA projection TV's, parts are readily available. The last item that needs to be done to make it play like new is to have the spherical mirror in the projection unit re-silvered.
