-RGB modding capability for the RCA 24F512T with M134 chassis is not documented in common RGB modding resources. This model does not appear on Sunthar's list of RGB-moddable CRT TVs. While some RCA models with CTC203 chassis are known to be RGB moddable (such as the E13309, E13320, and E13710), the M134 chassis used in the 24F512T has not been confirmed as moddable. Further investigation of the chassis circuitry and jungle IC specifications would be required to determine RGB mod feasibility.
