    My folks had a Volvo where the radio had 2 knobs and two buttons with arrows. One knob was volume, makes sense. The other knob and arrow buttons controlled the radio tuner and the thing to switch inputs from radio to cd to usb or whatever.

    So on one hand you’ve got radio channels with about a hundred different options (90.1, 90.3, 90.5, etc), and on the other hand you’ve got maybe 5 different inputs. Guess which thing the knob controlled.

      So you tell us what the knobs do, then ask us what the knobs do? Is that because you lied to us, or just want to make sure we’re capable of remembering what we just read?

        The knob and buttons are separate controls. One controlled the frequency on the radio, one controlled the inputs.

        The question was: which one do you think the knob controlled, frequency or inputs?

          Ah, gotcha. Naturally, the knob controlled the inputs, and the buttons were for the radio frequency. Sounds about right.
