Lot's of nice B/A stuff in the movie Amelia, too bad the
Technical Adviser was not on the set very much (maybe they
could not find a Female adviser !!).
One scene has a guy tuning a Sig Gen while talking on the radio,
shades of "From The Moon to the Earth". Other scenes show Amelia
and hubby chatting using D-104 mike variants, but no indication
of using PTT. Was VOX in vogue in the 30's ??

At least the Radioman on the Itaska used the "chicken choker" on
his D-104.
