If RCA used a TC-165, so I really don't see a problem using a TC-168 for this one. I wanted a 165 so it could be as close to the ETF pics as possible, but this one came up.

About a year ago, I was trying to buy a TC-165 off ebay. The deal fell amicably apart due to the delivery. He is in Milwaukee, too far away for me. I think his TC-165 would be a good candidate.

The fellow's name is Tom and his email address is <[email protected]>. As I said, this was a year or so ago but he said the set was in a shed and he sounded like a reasonable guy.
