Boy, that sure makes me believe you've got a Channel 25 UHF strip in the VHF tuner's Channel 13 slot. My set's channel knob shows only the VHF channels as well (but doesn't have that "projection" feature). Since you've got the chassis out, it should be quite easy to pop the tuner's cover off and check the turret. There would be two strips, one slightly longer than the other. All the strips are marked with their channel number.

Take care,
