In the 50s combos were common in some northern european countries.
(Denmark, Austria, Belgium, Germany)
They had TVs and the radios mounted on one chassis.
So its logical that the scales showing radio bands and TV channels.

No, there were lots of radio-TV combos right from the start. The Andrea is quite similar to many DuMont models that use a roller inductor tuner to cover the TV and FM bands in a single continuous tuning band. AM is covered with a separate tuner.
