...George Risk, that is:
I expected it to be magnetic reed, but sadly it's just a Futaba complicated linear (black and orange)
Key travel is very shallow and a bit too springy. Since it's a well known switch, I didn't bother taking switch pictures.
This is the keyboard (with dials!):
It's a morse code keyboard. (should come in handy when I need to send morse code)
There's an advertisement for the keyboard kit in BYTE magazine, Feb. 1978 (probably earlier version - mine is "753K")
