Title: Help needed: Anyone recognize this keyboard? Model F Clone?
Post by: Padan Fain on Tue, 07 May 2019, 14:27:50
Hi folks,

I wondered if you could help me identify this keyboard.

I couldn't find much information on it. The information I got is equally sparse: XT kompatible keyboard with DIN cable. I checked Model F Clones on Desthority, but couldn't narrow it down. I also asked the seller for more info. If he replies I will give you an update. It's supposed to cost 40 Euro.

In the meantime: if anybody has an idea...much appreciated.

Hope this is the right place to ask this (first poster here).

Thanks and see you around

Padan

That is actually the AT layout.

No idea but the F-4 Phantom II is pretty sweet. Too bad it is like a burly truck compared with other fighters.

Agreed. A burly plus-size model. I guess it doesn't meet todays emission standard also!  :p

The keyboard is a Key Tronic model F AT clone. There's some more info on the DT wiki page here (https://deskthority.net/wiki/Key_Tronic_Model_F_clone_series).

NMB also used a similar style case for their XT boards, but not AT. That, and the keycap font is also a dead giveaway that it's Key Tronic.
