I watched an episode of Drake and Josh
on nick. their younger sister in the story was a ham, nice kenwood station too. anyway, they played trick on her to make her think she copied an ET signal and 'landed' in her backyard. note: both of these guys used a borrowed rig and were not licensed to play the prank. |

They did: it was an SB-301 "transceiver". That must have been a _really_ potent Aurora! William (Filter noise from my address for direct replies) |

hi bill, Yes, great movie to watch, better in the theatre then at home. One flaw, the antenna used in 1969 was not available back then. 73 jim |

Ham Radio In Movies and TV
In "Some Like It Hot," with Marilyn Monroe et. al., Joe E. Brown's character
(Osgood Fielding III) is shown on his yacht using a Hallicrafters S-20R receiver (?) to telephone the hotel. http://antiqueradio.org/art/temp/hallis20r.jpg Have to wonder how that could work, since the S-20R can't transmit anything, and the cord from Osgood's telephone handset is plugged into the headphone jack. I'm guessing that a propmaster saw the Send/Receive switch and guessed this was a two-way radio of some sort. Oh well . . . that's Hollywood! Might give new meaning to the term "ham radio" :-) Phil Nelson Phil's Old Radios http://antiqueradio.org/index.html |
