Zenith

Don Rasmussen
Our console Zenith was one of the first ever to have a
4 "channel" remote. The remote was a small box with
four small tuning forks of differing length inside.

On, Off Channel UP, Channel DOWN, all from your
recliner!

It was one of the most sophisticated consumer devices
ever, the "iPhone" of our time, and we were the kings
of our street. ;-)

Standing in front of a Zenith like that, you could shake
the change in your pants pocket to make it execute
one of those four functions.
