Interesting, in the 1962 article on calibrating them, the author says that units WITH charts were selling for $100, without charts for $33 on average. I’m guessing most of us got ours at REALLY great prices according to that! We may be sitting on our retirement funds……..
I already made a chart for mine covering 3500-3600Kc, but I’m going to try KU8H’s method of generating a cal book for the full range and see how that works.

It's old...so it MUST be valuable! Lets throw a big price on it on Ebay and see what happens!

Gee!
I can't believe the prices sellers are asking for the subject rigs on eBay!! Even those without
cases or cal-books.
And other sellers are offering cal-books without meters.
I paid $5.00 each for my BC-221-AKs, and less than that for my two LMs.
Strange.
