Young Sheldon’s fake PA system

So did anyone else notice the President Madison with matching speaker on the network promo for Young Sheldon?

I guess it could also be the AM base version called the Dwight D but the fuzzy text under the channel knob appears to be Madison and not Dwight D.

The mike something like a Turner Plus 3?

I saw it. I couldn't make out if that was a Madison or not, but the desk mic sure looks like a Plus 3.

I didn't catch the earlier / original thread. But it's great to see that a number of us caught the radio in the ad.
Like others have noted normally you see some sort of receiver or scanner used as a 'transmitter'.

There's two shows that have a radio setup that intrigued me. One of those shows is Andy Griffith. Captain kilowatt straightened me out on what that setup was. I recently noticed a piece of equipment in the MASH 4077 radio room with a cover that closely resembled the covers used by the builder of the Elkin amplifiers. Another transceiver that intrigued me was the one that is used by Shelley Duvall to contact the police / ranger department in The shining. That transceiver eventually gets smashed to pieces by Jack Nicholson's crazy character. Captain kilowatt told me exactly what transceiver was too

    Incoming Region Produces X3 Solar Flare
    May 15, 2024 @ 14:55 UTC
    Another major solar flare, but this time from an active region just beginning to turn into view off the east limb. It is possible that the group responsible is old AR 3654 from the previous rotation. The latest flare, an X2.99 event just peaked at 14:38 UTC (May 15). Stay tuned

    Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
