The Bull-eye tuner is described in the operating manual but no mention of the interesting, non-sequential channel order.
I don't know but here in S.E.-PA., having 3-6-8-10-12 all adjacent to each other could have been a selling point, so you never needed to go "around the horn" to find out if anything is worth watching. Conversely if you lived in a metro area, typically using 2-4-5-7-9-11-13, you were equally accommodated.
Ill get a close up later but here is the set. Pre-1962 Zeniths are nearly impossible to find around here.
The 21FP4A is branded Zenith but with GE code, it tests weak and its cooking right now on the B&K 445.
