Philco 610 Volume Control Taper
#10

Guess #2 is that an linear taper volume control makes the set sound like it can play really loud as most of the gain is in the beginning of the rotation. Personally I think it's marketing trick to give a buyer the impression that a given set has a lot of volume when it doesn't.

When my pals were reading comic books
I was down in the basement in my dad's
workshop. Perusing his Sam's Photofoacts
Vol 1-50 admiring the old set and trying to
figure out what all those squiggly meant.
Circa 1966
Now I think I've got!
