[Thursday] Here’s an idea …

[Ken Carr]

Ham radio scenes have been in many famous movies. Old and easilyrecognizable consumer radio models have also been in movies. Anenterprising volunteer could reproduce a movie scene and placea blown up screenshot next to the set. Guests would be encouraged to stand in for the actor(s) and have their picture taken.I like the scene in Glass Bottom Boat (1966) that shows Doris Daynext to a Collins transceiver (see link):https://m.facebook.com/groups/12699105116/permalink/10169167446115117/? 

Dennis Quaid in “Frequency” (2000), using a Heathkit transceiver.https://pin.it/5bWbTMaaw 

Eddystone receiver in “Dr. No”, a 1962 James Bond movie. Can anyoneidentify the woman in the first photo?https://swling.com/blog/2017/04/more-radios-in-the-movies-james-bond-dr-no-1962/ 
Console radio in 1983 film, “A Christmas Story”. https://flic.kr/p/rdT3ZA 
There are many more. Post some links here so we can add to thecollection.
