Title: Honeywell Hall Effect Board
Post by: jacksonh22 on Fri, 22 May 2020, 22:10:54

A few months ago I picked up this vintage honeywell board and terminal. It uses standard Hall effect switches, however, the keyboard layout itself seems to be pretty unique. If you look around online, you'll see similar looking boards, but none with this same navcluster. This board also doesn't have a numpad... strange.

I know these boards receive a lot of appreciation, however, the switches seem to be quite stiff and annoying to type on for more than a couple minutes.

Cool. Nice find. It is especially nice to see the board and terminal together.
