Glad you found it John. HB keyers have been around since the 30's. I
remember an OT down the street who had one he built in that era with 45's
and he had absolutely no problem with it at 35-40 wpm in the late 50's.

I usually think of "nice old radio stuff" as being from pre-WW2, or from
the1940's at the latest. To me, stuff from the 1960's is pretty
johnny-come-lately.
Hi Don,
Hey if it makes you nervous, I'll be glad to take that 1955-1960s'
johnny-come-lately 75A4 off your hands. :-)
I like anything that is well made, especially if it is homebrew. It now
looks like this one may have been, check back to my web page, I just added
the schematic from a 1964 handbook.
