I don;t remember ever having an antenna other than rabbit ears that bolt into the top but yeah those connectors for Pong and Atari and even VHS players.
Video games had that little box too to switch from antenna to channel 3 where the screen showed the game but you also had to turn the tv knob to 3 on some TVs too. Like solving a puzzle to get to play a video game.

And if that little screw fell inside the slot? Fugetaboutit. Risk electrocution trying to fish that fucker out!

I got the belt one time for breaking a TV knob man! TV had mini vise grips on it after that. I turned it past it was supposed to go and broke the inside out. After that we could tell what channel it was on by where the vise grips pointed. At least I could hahaha!

To think now I have a 3D printer and could make that dang knob.

Our first remote controlled TV [ beyond child labor] allowed the dogs tags on her collar changing channels.
Gods honest truth~! She shook her head and the channel would change.
