He thought it was a Frankenset, but I replied that it was original because of the tube location diagram matched the chassis.
Naturally, the CRT was a rebuilt and weak, with a britener.
He probably still has it to this day.

That was the model RA-119B. Super, super rare. There were some
subtle cabinet differences besides the electronics within. I have
both the DuMont RA-119A and RA-119B models. In these pictures,
the "B" model is on the left, the "A" on the right.
Crosley also produced a TV set using the 30BP4 CRT. (not mine)
