But in THIS case...the set is a bit different. It was the FIRST direct address set RCA made, and the most unusual thing about it is that it had NO controls on the set to turn it on or off, or change channels. The large remote(and ONLY the remote), did all of that. And they were NOT hotel sets, either, just the top-of-the-line RCA sets at the time, with OSD when that was pretty much unheard of. They have the CTC-81AD chassis, the first "colortrak" version. yes, the remote has a keypad to directly enter the channels, as you say...but ONLY the remote. The Magnavox STAR,out at the same time frame, DID have controls on the set too.
