RCA C15-3 floor model
#19

Ron;
  You know I have never run across an RCA, or a Canadian G.E set, that was not a good performer, especially from that era. Another make like that is Rogers, Rogers built sets are pretty much on a par with Stromberg Carlson, except they did not make their own speakers like Stromberg did. When it comes to Philcos it seems to be a coin toss with me, I've had some that just refused to work properly, or had strange problems, others were great.
Regards
Arran
