There is no COLLINS KW-107 antenna tuner. It was made by KW Electronics
Ltd. in England, later known (sold to?) as Decca. The cabinet shape and
color matches the Collins S-line but the shiny aluminium knobs and the
cheap square white faced instrument with its clear plastic cover are not
what I want anywhere near to my Collins. 
The asking price is rather stiff too. I bought one at the auction place
for less than a third.
Yes I admit that I have a handfull of KW Electronics gear, a KW-2000
transceiver, a separate receiver with matching speaker, the KW-107
antenna tuner and a later Decca KW-2000 CAT, a fixed 4-channel
transceiver full of the famous Plessey SL600 series integrated circuits.
