The movie "Frequency" did use a Heath SB series transceiver, could have been 
an SB-101 or SB-102.

I don't recall Herman Munster singing, but I do have a WAV file saved of him 
calling "CQ"

If you really want to have fun spotting amateur radio gear, watch reruns of 
the of "ALF" series and look at all the amateur gear that is shown every time 
the run out to the garage for some solice and quiet times.  VHF operators 
will be especially interested in all the 50 MHz Clegg gear on the show.  
Someone on the staff obviously had a nice supply of their gear back to the 
Clegg'99er days, but many others appear.
