ADM11 terminal keyboard - Low profile Stackpole grid
Posted: 07 Apr 2016, 20:05
This is an keyboard the was used on a Lear Siegler ADM-11 terminal. It has a couple of things that are interesting in that it has the classic looking Stackpole grid switch with the waffle grid but it is low profile and not as tall as I am used to seeing. The other interesting part is the word "Oak" on the PCB. Is this related to Oak switches in some way? Were Stackpole and Oak related?
