When you ordered a mono radio (either AM or AM/FM) without an 8 track it came with one front speaker only. Optional with these radios was a regular or echo style single rear speaker. The regular rear speaker option (Sepra-phonic) slid over the right tuning knob of the radio and the bezel controlled front to rear. The echo option (verbal-phonic) worked with a remote unit that was controlled by a switch of same design and location as the power top, rear defogger etc.
The only first generation Firebird available with a power antenna was 69 and it was mounted in the trunk. In 67-68 a manual rear antenna option was available but no power feature. Standard antennas for all three years were mounted on the front fender and were manually height adjustable.

So could you order a 4-speaker AM/FM multiplex with an 8 track in 69 that didn't require a switch? I'm told it was built into the 8 track?
