In the film Cliff Hanger, when the mountain guys are running round with
there handhelds, the base guy is talking into a FT101ZD.

Great place hollywood.

Yeh! and another little point of interest, in the popular TV series "Z-Cars"
the little Pye PF1 was both transmitter AND receiver. But I suspect that was
just pretend, too, just the same as in the later episodes of "Dixon Of Dock
Green."

Incidentally, did you know that the Pye PF1 was one of the biggest single
sources of accidents among the bobby on the beat? When you pushed the PTT
switch, the aerial rod shot out. Quite a number of bobbies got the aerial up
the nose and some even lost the little plastic bit up there. Nasty!
