you can see a row of eight push buttons with LEDs in them just below the
CRT.
They are a really nice push button that I have a certain affinity for.
Does anyone know who made/makes those or have a modern source for them?
C&K Digitast. There are knock-offs by others that look similar and are cheaper...
but don't feel the same.

Most of the C&K switches from the 70's are available almost verbatim (modulo
ROHS and whatever) today.
