My CTC110B parts chassis has a sticker just above where the power cord goes in indicating its manufacture date as being October 1982, which matched the sticker on the back of the set. The sticker on my chassis isn't fully attached; actually there isn't enough room for it to have ever been stuck down completely. That sticker could be floating around inside your set's cabinet. The CRT sticker from my 1978 XL-100 had fallen off.

Funny how RCA switched back and forth between delta and inline CRTs from the late 70s-early 80s. The above mentioned XL-100 has an inline CRT.

I checked around there but could not find any relevent sticker...but I gotta say RCA seemed to just loooove those sticker, those buggers are all around in the set!

All CTC110 should be in line jugs.
The cabinet was also used on RCA's last modular chassis,
dont remember the CTC# but saw darn few of em. So
either rare or VERY reliable set.
Model starts with 3 letters such as FGR465W etc.
On RCA CRT bias is same as what others call screen controls.
The drives are to take any color out of the bright areas after setting
the bias. The by the book procedure is to long to type out but
what you can do is :
Mark the 5 controls at 12:00 so you can go back to where you started.
Mess around with them to see the effect & try to improve things
When done one of the bias controls should be CCW.
