Now I wonder if it could possibly affect the tracking a bit (though not intentionally) in the OFF position - have to try it.

I don’t know for sure, but found this from bgadow. I can verify my set has a color killer circuit.

I wonder if the color switch was only used on the Super model CTC-5? I have a Deluxe and I just checked it. I had never noticed any switch to that control and, indeed, there is none. Or it could have just been a production change. I'm thinking maybe they eliminated the color killer on the cheaper model?
I have a Motorola from about '68 with the neon indicator. I've heard of a Hoffman that lit up the color & tint controls when a colorcast was tuned in, but I've never seen confirmation of that.
