Paul Mulik, you beat everything. I had watched this episode more than once and never even thought that they might be listening to the radio instead of watching TV. In episodes where the radio/phonograph is used. (I can remember two episodes off the top of my head, One where the fun girls turn on the radio in Andy's house and one where Opie is playing some records) It has always been located to the right of the door that leads to the kitchen from the living room. Right there in the corner. The TV was located closer to the front door underneath one of those windows that face the front porch.
In the House Guest episode at the end of the Boy and his dog show, Andy clearly walks over to the corner of the room near the kitchen door and turns off the radio. One way that you can be sure is that he reaches down in a vertical motion to switch off the set. If he had been reaching to turn off the TV he would have used a horizontal motion since the knobs on the TV faced the front of the set and didn't face straight up like the radio did. This also explains why the Taylors couldnt figure out what happened on the episode. If it had been a TV episode even if Gomer was talking they still could have seen the video part of the episode and pretty much known what happened. But with radio they couldnt hear the episode due to Gomers talking. Well thats my Theory.....
