The thumb-wheel tuning is continuous. It is connected to a miniature turret tuner.
Note that there are two station indicator wheels, one is viewed from the top, and the other can be viewed from the front whilst sitting down.
The set is switched on or off by opening or closing the speaker cover at the top.

It's great that schematics are the universal language. IIRC, the audio IC is an RCA issue.
Looking at the power supply, it's a voltage doubler derived from an 87 volt secondary, interesting!
Was AWA related to RCA. It seems that Radiola and Radiotron was RCA brand names.
