We were in a restaurant last week and this trailer played on a TV that was all the way across the room. The SP-600 caught my eye. I once had one of those, but chickened out when I read about the horrors of black-beauty cap replacement. There is also a D-104 in the trailer (several of those are with me now). And the girl is transmitting with a Turner SSB+2 Transistorized mic -- I have one of those also. Thomas K4SWL over at The SWLing Post notes that the SP-600 Tuning Dial appears to have been modified. I'm thinking the wanted it to look like some sort of transmitter output meter. I think I can also see some sort of Collins antenna tuner. Any ideas on whose shack this all comes from? It looks like a real ham shack. From the trailer, it appears that the ham gear somehow helped us establish contact with Godzilla, who then went on to save the planet. I hope. ONCE AGAIN, HAM RADIO SAVES THE DAY! The ham radio stuff is in the first minute or so of the trailer.
The kilovolt meter and rocker switch seen at the very beginning appear to be on the Collins 30-L1. It is seen later out of focus behind the Astatic D-104 mic. I agree that the "needle" in the right window of the Super Pro is CGI. This is a classic ham station, somewhere.
