Not for along, long time. They went away before we were done with CRTs.
Yes. I think ours was a slider style switch. Maybe an extra switch that went from Channel 2 or 3?
Ha. Yeah, OK that’s stupid. I do work in the same kind of homes and have seen some janky shit too. Extension cord wire to run “just one more outlet”, J boxes filled with drywall mud and newspaper to “make it a safe” junction. We moved a fridge once and found they’d used a lamp cord as an extension cord. And don’t get me started on hvac guys and plumbers butchering joists.
