I can confirm this. As a youth, we had a Zenith TV. The remote had four functions (Hmmmm.). Inside the remote were four metal rods of different lengths. Each button would strike one rod causing it to resonate. The TV would "hear" these notes and respond accordingly. And, yes we could get the channels to change by jingling a set of keys.
