Like you I was too under the impression that it was RCA 811K and ended up buying 811K as well as a 816K. Then someone corrected me about the model. I saw the movie again. And I was quite disappointed on myself Icon_sad

But anyway these RCA radios are awesome in sound reproduction. Only problem I see in them are the escutcheons.
Here's mine 816K (unrestored) and 811K is under restoration. Chassis is fully restored even the electric tuning is fixed. I suck in cabinet refinishing so working on that. Once I am done with it, I'll post the pictures.
Thanks for reading. Icon_smile
