This Radiogram really works! Am Radio, works with batteries. The doors open and have some spaces for the jewelry!

On Monday, July 11, 2016, Mike and I headed to the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) to exchange our Florida driver's licenses for Texas ones. Given the lengthy wait ahead of us, we decided to visit the nearby Texas DPS Historical Museum and Research Center (5805 N. Lamar Blvd.) to kill some time.

 

Here, you can see several pieces of equipment that would have been used by Texas DPS communication centers in the 1960s and 1970s. A labeled photo placard (partially visible at the lower left) provided details on the exhibit:

 

Teletype Model 28 ASR Machine (left)

In 1963, DPS upgraded its telecommunication facilities by installing approximately 19 Teletype Corporation Model 28 ASR (Automatic Send and Receive) machines, which could transmit 100 words per minute.

 

Prior to the teletype equipment on display, the DPS exchanged messages with the help of long-distance operators. DPS communications personnel using the TWX teletype/ticker tape system provided the the interface for this operation.

 

NAWAS Telephone (affixed to left side of desk)

The black telephone was part of the NAWAS (National Warning System). All DPS communication centers were on a ''hot line'' hookup used for immediate communications for statewide notification of any disaster or emergency situation.

 

Radio Console (on top of desk)

1960–1970-era radio console used in the Childress Communication Center. The console, on a standard grey metal desk, was (and is) the lifeline of the officers in the field. The dispatcher (radio operator) was able to communicate with all local, county, federal, and other state law enforcement agencies to provide communication as needed.

 

Typewriter (on right side of desk)

The typewriters, such as this one displayed, were designed to type in upper case (capital letters) only. All teletypes and memos generated in the communications centers were required to be in large print for easier reading and understanding.

Teletype Model 19 KSR Machine (to right of desk)

Between 1950 and 1952, DPS leased line teletype networks. This network utilized Teletype Model 19 KSR (Keyboard Send and Receive) terminals, such as this one displayed, which could transmit 60 words per minute.

 

Prior to the teletype equipment on display, the DPS exchanged messages with the help of long-distance operators. DPS communications personnel using the TWX teletype/ticker tape system provided the the interface for this operation.

 

Er moest iets meer ruimte gemaakt worden omdat de fascia breder is dan het originele plaatje. Afteken werkzaamheden doen wij altijd op schilderstape.

There is a fourth operating position in the middle of the room to the left edge of this photo.

Na een flinke servicebeurt bij een van onze collega-bedrijven konden wij weer aan de slag om de laatste hand te leggen aan onder andere het dashboard.

Een andere prangende wens was een fatsoenlijke audio installatie. Wij hebben gekozen voor een 4 weg systeem met hoog geplaatste speakers achterin. Zeker wanneer een auto volgepakt is met bagage heeft de laaggeplaatste positie die Land Rover verzonnen heeft geen enkele toegevoegde waarde meer namelijk.

De gebruikte speakers zijn van Audio Systems, ook verkrijgbaar in onze webshop.

Onze persoonlijke favoriet van het moment; de Kenwood KDCBT73DAB. Direct bij het instappen is de telefoon al aan het verbinden via bluetooth, heeft een goede handsfree belfunctie, usb poorten voor en achterop, cd speler, digitale radio, eenvoudige bediening en een prima geluid.

The Zenith 8-S-463 was introduced in the fall of 1939 as part of the 1940 model line-up. Its original selling price was $69.95.

 

It's an 8-tube three-band all-wave superheterodyne that was referred to in Zenith advertising as the "super 8".

 

Het dashboard moest voorzien worden van een TD5 look-alike centre fascia waar de accu monitor in geplaatst kon worden. De fascia in voorbereiding op de werktafel:
