[AMRadio] Re: GB> Original T.O. Keyer Article When?

[Alan Cohen]

I forget to mention that the article is in the edition of the handbook 
copyrighted in 1962.

I hope that helps.

A detailed construction article about to build a W9TO keyer may be 
found in Bill Orr's "West Coast" handbook on pages 597 - 600.  The unit 
in the handbook seems to have a circuit that is identical to the T.O. 
keyers commercially manufactured by Hallicrafters.
