randomness

Just a couple of things from today.  


First, my ham license renewal came in the mail.  Hard to believe it's been 10 years already, all in the 21st century.

 Second, a slide rule came from shopgoodwill.  This is a Pickett 1010 SL-ES "Super Power Trig".  I hope I'm man enough for it. 


And lastly, to get back to typewriters, I saw a different trailer for the new movie "The Family" today and couldn't find it until the creepy targeted ads based on recent activity plopped it on my facebook feed.  So I clipped an image.   This trailer was the first I'd seen mentioning the MC's memoirs as a plot point.  It opens for half a second on his hands on a typewriter.  Because they are in France in the movie I thought it was a Japy, but the key shapes aren't quite right.  What do you think?

  1. I was thinking an Adler as well. But..maybe a Japanese model.

  2. Key tops look like one of my Adler machines. Congratulations on the renewal. I just got off the air a few minutes ago.
