Thanks for the info! I will try to attach a pic of that center plaque. (It sits in front of a routed out rectangle.) I am still "rediscovering" the quirks of the set by chatting with my mother and my sister. I do recall that it was given two reprieves: at one point my father wanted to turn the cabinet into a bar; at another point, he was considering making it into an aquarium. Neither idea panned out, so it was never gutted. I also have to chat with my cousins upstate: their parents had a slightly different model. Two differences: different speaker cloth, and there was an empty plastic case behind the UHF panel. (Ours did not swing down.) I know that I've is still in an outbuilding in their farm.
