Billhag Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Yerrh, I agree it does look like its a white or silver design on green background and the more I look at it that does look like 447 I was thinking that the logo could be an oval globe with a name throgh the center a bit like a squashed version of the Pan Am logo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD1009 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Another miss but that grill looks very similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappy Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 I was thinking that the logo could be an oval globe with a name throgh the center still searching but it could be not the manufacturer of the radio but a code,like GX-447,Pan-Am 447,or like 1009's picture model447 etc. maybe someone can look at the credit titles of the movie,something linked(crew,special thanks etc) must be there it has to be.....

No... I looked... Generally they don't have anything down for props (even things like cars) else the closing titles would be longer than the film...

Pappy Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 No... I looked... Generally they don't have anything down for props (even things like cars) else the closing titles would be longer than the film... darn... But someone identified all the cars though CLICK HERE This could be an interesting fact The cheap electronics revolution of the 1970s saw a boom in Citizen Band and ham radios, where ordinary people were able to afford their own personal radio transmitters and talk to each other very much like internet chat rooms today, sometimes internationally.

Rolf Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Rolf, my pick was just a screen dump off youtube so don't look at the size there... The pics from shagger999uk on the RPF would be a screen cap from the DVD so more accurate... Thanks, for the quick reply bro . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-J Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 I had no idea this was such a big issue, or I would have mentioned it earlier Anyway, I found a prop list fom the original Avengers from the late '60s, but nothing on the New Avengers. Maybe someone in the UKG could contact the BBC prop dept. and ask if it would be listed in their archives. Found this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD-443 Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 After almost 2 or 3 days of no sleep and constant web surfing for this GD radio ive come to the conclusion that the brand is either: Swing Interlectronic Ltd http://www.radiomuseum.org/m/swing_hk_en_1.html or skyton http://www.radiomuseum.org/dsp_hersteller_...company_id=7733 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappy Posted January 2, 2009 Share Posted January 2, 2009 OMG! but you're okay right? Thats the disadvantages we cant take as a non-member bro,a clearer or greater pics of the radios from that site/forum if not....we can see what sticker on those radios for comparisson. And even theres many unknown radios circa 70's.....but yet many of some is very similar on specs.......hard call This radio if it isnt custom,not well published,its TOP-SECRET Anyway heres the Cast and Crew,The New Avengers might be useful too for someone who has a 'Link' Oh...and dont search for radios circa 45-65...........they're all Wood and Bakelite in material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
