The "phono" at the lower end of the dial is their version of a shorting switch. The phono input is likely always live, and many sets of the era used the tuner as a mute circuit (at fully meshed, the rotor and stator plates short together, killing RF signal input, so you can listen to the phono without noise in the background.)
