Andrew,
Actually the other way round. You'd set the 'Volume' control, which is actually mainly the Reaction Capacitor, to about mid way, find a Station, then trim it up with the Aerial Trimmer, and adjust the volume with the Volume Control.
I expect most of them simply got set on the local or National Station and left there.
I've attached an anotated Circuit Diagram.
