IIRC, it's for adjusting the stereo balance.

Our '83 GSL had the same thing.

Yeah, I'm guessing stereo balance. My '83 GSL didn't have it there, though, it had it in the old clock location in the center console. Maybe a mid-year change?

Nope, all wrong. You have the Atari Edition trim level. Nice fine!

It's junk, install new stereo, remove joystick, install coin holder or something else. It tends to get in my way some times, as small as it is.
