The Atwater Kent 1055 TRF radio console used the #100 wood cabinet and the same chassis as the Atwater Kent 66, which used a different cabinet.
According to Ralph O. Williams, author of The Atwater Kent Radios, The AWA Review Vol. 12, 1999, the top-of-the-line in the 60's series was the Model 66.
There is one dial (primary tuning control knob).
