Either that, Phil, or MAYBE it was a way of trying to make their TV "Stand Out" from all the rest...Something w/THAT many impressive looking buttons HAD to be better than just a couple of big ol' dumb knobs, right ? Kinda like all those radios we've all seen from this era that had HUGE cases, w/"Flying Buttress" styling, only slightly less impressive in style & size than the Chrysler Bldg..And inside, is a rinky-dink AA5, no better-or worse- than fifty-eleven other sets of the same time frame.
