RCA's first post-war television model,
the cabinet was designed by
John Vassos. This model is actually a left over pre-war set that
was updated with the new post-war
NTSC
broadcast standards. The 621TS is the most scarce of all the RCA
direct-view post-war televisions as on a few thousand were made. A
well designed set for it's time that will perform well (when properly
restored) to this day. Unlike most 7" TV's of the time, the 621TS is a
power transformer operated 21 tube chassis. Other features are a
magnetically deflected CRT (lower cost sets use the electrostatic
type) and a flyback transformer for deflection and high voltage. My
favorite post war television set.
