Comment on The R47: A new physical RPN calculator

Comments

I'd love to see a non-programmable version. If I recall it would be something like the HP 10C. It's because I just want the RPN part along with math functions.

A good example: Taking your FCC ham license exam does not permit use of your phone or a programmable calculator. They would have allowed me to use it.

I had practiced for the exams with my old HP 11C. It was jarring to have to switch to a TI calculator during the test.

Swiss Micros makes several reproductions of old HP calculators such as the 11c, 12c, 15c ...etc. I know the 15c has keystroke macros, but not sure about the 12c.

Edit: it looks like you're right and they're all programmable. My mistake.
