Albert,

If you do find such a site, let me know!  I was watching the Bruce Willis
flick "Live Free or Die Hard" and noticed that every government agency and
the DC Police used an ADI AR-147 2m mobile radio in their cars.  I guess
"interoperability" has finally taken hold, because every radio in the movie
was displaying 144.330 MHz!  Geez- you'd think that someone on the movie
staff could do better than that...

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] OT: Radios and Coms in TV and Movies

I was wondering if anyone had links to any websites that talk about
radios used in TV and Movies. 

What got me thinking about this was that I had been watching the old
TV show Emergency on Netflix. (remember squad 51, rampart hospital, etc.) 

I know some of the stuff is just props but I thought some of it might
be real equipment that I don't recognize. For instance one of the
characters (Roy) often carries an HT into the hospital when they drop
off a patient. I think it is an HT220 since it has a telescoping
antenna, but might be a MT500.

Thanks
