48 were produced under RAV nomenclature.
Gordon White is the only person I know who 
has ever seen one, and that was long ago and the 
set was wrecked-out.
None are known to have survived;  I consider that set 
to be the "Holy Grail" of Command Set collecting.
I wouldn't sell one of my daughters for one.... I think....
......   well......

In fact, of the 48 sets of 8 RAV receivers each 
that were built, I know of only 4 individual receivers
in private hands, and two of them were prototypes.   
There is a story- though from a creditable witness- 
that all the RAVs were dumped in the Med, 
replaced by RAX, but no documentation exists.  
I own one RAV dynamotor.
