Yup, an AT-101 plate can be modified to fit those two additional switches. I did that on my build:

I have this search for a certain vintage Zenith Monitor saved and today this popped up:

http://www.ebay.de/itm/YAESU-YR-901-CW- ... 1781832958?

Not my monitor, but the keyboard might be interesting for someone here. Not on the cheap side though.

Yep, the board is awesome. I'd be interested to know what switch is inside.

Here's the manual. Nothing on switch type but all the schematics you might ever need.

Did anyone here get the Model F XT from Austin Goodwill? $27.20 is an excellent price. I didn't bid on it. You're welcome. :-)

this keyset went for 1025USD :|

Edit: I think the the fact that "All proceeds from this sale will go to Destiny, a little girl battling cancer" also had a big influence

Mainly for the reason that the proceeds of the auction will go to charity.

Vintage video editing keyboard with sculpted sphericals. Could be Stackpole, Futaba, Micro Switch Hall effect, ITW/Cortron magnetic valve, or the dreaded foam and foil. The seller is not able to remove a key cap for a photo. Anyone want to take a gamble?

I don't mind proxying it for you. :evilgeek:

Though, the advertised USPS rate on that auction to Germany is quite reasonable. Sorry, I can't do any better than that.

Shipping kills many things. There's often just no way around it. Unless you're travelling there in person, which is my trick…

Got a bigger image? There's a way to finagle ebay images so that you can see the original.

The LEDs remind me of Keytronic's foam and foil. May be the reason the seller is reluctant to pull a key.

Maybe. I got the impression that this was a volume seller with a big warehouse and they're being lazy.
