[Heathkit] Heathkit Digest, Vol 109, Issue 24

[David Thompson]

Nick,

There was an old time CW operator in Mississippi (can't remember his W5 
call).
He had the 25 watt transmitter and built his own supply.  We assumed they 
provided a diagram and you built it from parts (not a kit).

He was a regular on Army MARS in the late 1950's on 3289.  He loved his bug 
and could chug along at 40 WPM and  has long since become a SK.
