I'd call the builder a "skilled craftsman" but yes, that's what this 
appears to be.   The dial face and some other components were salvaged 
from the RCA receiver but it appears to use varactor-tuning with 
adjustments made by the array of pots that are switched for each band.  
Looks to be 2009 construction from the date on the side,  nicely done.  
I'd note that the ebay seller tacked on the "RCA" designation, the 
builder just borrowed the same model number.
