Yours would have to be before the UHF mandate in 1964 though.

The fact that it has VHF-only tuning would make it no newer than April, 1964 and since the model number starts with 4, that may mean this set was made for the 1964 model year (in many cases, the first digit of a Sears model number is the model year). On the inside, I found what might be 1963 date codes on some of the parts. As far as Sam's, I think it sometimes took them a year or two to publish service information for some models.
