This puzzled me for a long time, but I think I know...individual "strips" in the VHF tuner (each channel has a strip, the circuitry for each channel) could be swapped out for strips tuned to a UHF channel. This seems to be pretty rare...I do have an early 50s Emerson with local ch.16 subbed on one channel, and my Predicta has a label noting that 2 of the channels are UHF (forget the numbers off hand). Somewhere I have a jelly jar full of labels and I think maybe some strips to add ch.16 to some Zenith sets. I don't know how the UHF antenna would get hooked up for those strips. I would think this would be especially rare on these later models with UHF tuners; could be there for the benefit of import sets where UHF wasn't mandatory?
