@jon-nyc in the late 1960s, we had a remote-control TV. It was a Zenith, and I think the remote was called "Air Command."
It had two buttons. One was a volume up/down and the other was a channel up/down. When you pressed the channel up button, the dial on the front of the TV would turn and tune to the next channel. If you wanted to go up two channels, you pushed the button twice.
It was remarkable. It made a real "click" when you pushed the button, and we've called the remote a "clicker" ever since.
This is similar - it was a miracle of technology. Didn't need batteries, either.
This ad is from the 1970s.
