Boy a Lampkin 105B.  I had one in the middle 1960's and it was more accurate 
than a BC-221 but a bear to work with.  My Dad tried to enter the ARRL FMT 
(Frequency Measuring Test) and our resident expert Bob Shanks W5CKY (later 
W5AO) laughed at the results.  Bob as usual made the FMT Honor roll.

I do remember that the 105B had a big heater unit and it got too hot to 
touch.
