Chris, 



Would a TRT-11 qualify? I always thought it was essentially a 1B with some updates squeezed into 3 racks? It was supposedly the "PORTABLE" version,(if you had a truck to haul it around in).

So we have not had any takers on the subject. 

So since we had a great discussion about the TRT-1, here is the answer for that series. 

TRT-1A 
TRT-1B 

There was a C added to the end if it had the color rack added.  The A version had a number of different layouts.  It was the very first machine that RCA really mass manufactured.  The layout would change and the servo amps were a number of versions.  The design by the B model was stable. 

Now there were several other accessories that were available.  Solid state Capstan servo that was the Switch lock.  Then Pix Lock that did the H lock.  Finally a monochrome ATC system. 

So does anyone else know the other models?
