Title: honeywell RX43S, what switches?
Post by: chyros on Mon, 10 August 2015, 03:14:13

There appear to be at least two types of RX43S, both made in the late eighties, a 101-key one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honeywell-AT-Keyboard-Clicky-101RXe-101RX43S-2E-J-/191648424857?hash=item2c9f22e399 and a 122-key terminal one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honeywell-122RX43S-162E-122RX43S-162E-Keyboard-24-POS-MEDICAL-Function-NEW-/361261070978?hash=item541cd67a82

Does anyone know what switches both use? Cheers!

Second one looks like buckling spring.
