Hi folks!
I asked the same question to a japanese friend, just because japanese sets for the japanese market do the same!
In the front or back, most is written in english, before and after the war!

There are no radios with japanese writing on the scale!

My friend told me, that it was a kind of "chic", when written in english!
Only complicated discriptions for using controls are in japanese, when written inside a lid (vintage TV sets of the 50s).

Regards,
TV-collector
