Did Admiral or Motorola ever try to make a multi-band radio that had a rotating drum dial (linked to the band switch) such as the Zenith T/O's had, or did Zenith have a patent on that design? It seems as if the wording on the dial of the Admiral set is similar to that on Zenith T/O's, even down to the notations as to when to expect reception on each band (all day, morning, evening, etc). The only thing I don't see on the Admiral is an external AM antenna as the early SS and tube-type T/O's all had. Again, was this an exclusive design patented by Zenith?
