[IRCA] Apollo 13

[Ira Elbert New III <ien3@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

     Here's a question for those of you who are a lot smarter than I am...I'm watching Apollo 13 during the commercial breaks tonight while the ALA - LSU game is on. They show a couple of scenes in the movie where Jim Lovell's wife is listening to the transmissions from the spacecraft. It's a grey speaker, with a NASA logo on it, but it never appears to be attached to a radio. Anybody know anything about this? Did the families have access to the communications? It puzzles me every time I see it.
