Forgot to name the movie.  It was, of course, "The Glass-Bottomed Boat".

Those of us who are eligible for the Old Old Timers Club (40+ years) can add
another to the list.  The 1960's romantic comedy starred Doris Day & Arthur
Godfrey (I forget who the male love interest was.).  Of course, Arthur
Godfrey was K4LIB.

The setting of the movie was that Doris Day ran a sightseeing glass-bottomed
boat in Florida.  Godfrey played her father, & they talked to each other
over ship-to-shore radio,  The radio on the boat was a Collins KWM-2.   I
wonder if it was Godfrey's personal rig?
