The only time I ever got to use one of those motorized-tuner TV sets was when I was in a hospital for about a week, in 1968. I remember that the motor was quite fast, so I had to only briefly hit the channel-change button, otherwise I would have to go all the way around the dial again (including, turning the TV set off when it hit the normally "UHF" position below channel 2, then right back on again).
The set I watched was likely a modified set for use in hospitals; maybe the typical ones for home use were easier to use.
