[Hallicrafters] Radio gear in the "Tintin" movie

[Peter VK6PM]

Hi Duane,
Sorry taking so long to get back on this, I'm laid up with a bad back at the 
moment.
I haven't been able to find any free images or video footage of the ships 
radio room in the Tintin movie.
There has been a lot of debate in other conference groups about this.
I'm pretty sure that Spielberg has used Hallicrafters equipment in this 
"set".
The receiver looks like very much like an SX-28, I noticed that all the 
loudspeakers have the "h"
 on them, and yet some in other groups think that it might be Collins or 
Hammarlund! Hi!
The animation is very high resolution, so the detail on the radio gear is 
quite amazing. They must have "sampled" the pictures from some where, 
possibly even a real station.
