Emerson 1233 portable with AM radio
 

This TV is currently being offered on the well known auction site.
It appears to be a 8-inch unit, with a UHF tuner. One interesting
feature is the AM tuning dial on the same axis as the VHF tuner.
Has anyone ever seen a set like this?

(Item number 200264796950).

Look closely at that set. The AM tuning knob and the UHF tuning knob have had their locations switched. The small UHF knob should be concentric to the VHF knob. I'd love to have one of those sets, particularly because of the radio combo.

Thanks for pointing this out, it makes a lot of sense. Do you think this is pre-1964,
meaning the UHF was an option? Information about old Emerson sets is very
hard to find on the web!
