On channel USA at 1600 UTC, is a movie about a man who communicates
with his dead father via a Ham radio. I think the repeat movies on USA
for the day.

Might be interesting.

Oh the movie is called "Frequency"

Yep, and it's a horrible movie. It's certainly not the best use of
Dennis Quaid's talents.

I was really amused by the fact that the guy was using a Heathkit
receiver as a transceiver.
Yes,

they showed 2 transceivers but I couldn't make them out. Heathkit huh?
Which one? The one missing the top where you saw the tubes or the other
one?

And they must have used a foot switch or VOX as most of the time they didn't
touch the mike PTT !

If you want to see a real "Radio" Movie -- see PBS presentation "Empire Of
The Air - The men who made radio"
Available on Amazon.com in DVD
