Set-up was vitally important in the early sets, & I think a lot of the times, it was neglected. Another thing, around here, anyway, was the very real problem of lousy signal-I remember we got 3 stations before cable, NONE of 'em very good-Remember when an airplane would fly over & wreck the picture ? A lot of the bad signal problems went away when we got cable TV in the mid '60s, until then, lots of folks had NO idea what kind of picture their TV could actually produce in the 1st place...
