My good friend W4MIL just gifted me a sweet World Radio Laboratories Duo-Bander 84.  Chuck had restored it several years ago and it looks great!  The front panel is very simple, two tone gray and aqua color, just a few knobs, and a speaker on the front.   I’m going to check into the Sunday night Vintage SSB net out of North Dakota on 3860 with the Duo-Bander tonight and see how it works out.

I was curious about the Duo-Bander history.  I see it came out around 1966.  I wonder who designed it, and how popular it was.  Was it a big seller?  Chuck and I were musing over the two speed vernier dial, reminds us of Swan.

Does anyone have some history on this lil gal?
