Hey Bob that must be the same set no bandswitch knob!

Hi Spook and welcome,
Here a little info on the automatic tuning.    https://web.archive.org/web/201702040249.../index.htm

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!
