Identify this Panasonic remote control!

[rpm1200]

When I was a kid, my grandparents had a Matsushita-era Quasar with the same type of remote, but in a brown plastic case instead of gray. The button layout was the same. The television set was a late 70s 25" console; modern-styled cabinet with lots of chrome. It had a motor-driven varactor tuner. The remote would only select between a couple of volume levels, and there was a volume knob on the set for finer control.

One interesting thing was that my great-aunt and uncle had a similar Quasar with the same remote, but they also had a mechanical "clicker" remote that operated it too. The remotes must have operated on the same frequencies.

The control panel looked a lot like the one here: http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=266641

But it was a modern cabinet style.

And it had the same "Insta-Matic" switch as this one: http://videokarma.org/showthread.php?t=263773

Found a picture of the actual TV for what it's worth...
Dig that Quasar top-loading VCR!
