I looked in my 1981 Photofact index and did not find it as CL-5. Look for a chassis # on the upper chassis. A photo of the markings would help.

That's a very interesting set. I poked around in Riders up through 1950 and did not see anything that matches that cabinet and knob layout. Is there a KCS number on the television chassis? Could it have been a custom job, or possibly they had another source of service literature for the clubman models? I suppose it could be in one of the early RCA red books.

I found another VK thread that had that same set. If Chuck A is still around maybe he will chime in with some details. http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=248881

Here are some images of the chassis numbers I can see in the set:

KCS-20B-1 Horizontal deflection chassis?
KCS-24 RF-IF tuning chassis?
CP-5200 Audio amplifier
MI-6333C Speaker
??? Power supply
KRK1 ??? Optical barrel

With further research, I found an explanatory image of the RCA PTU from the 1947-1949 time period. This image is Chuck's from "MyVintageTV.com"
I could not find the power supply chassis number or the optical barrel chassis number at this time.

Take a look at the factory service manual for the 648PTK. As well as Sams 90-9. Both on the ETF website.

There's a wealth of information in the RCA factory manual. Get ready for some heavy reading.
