[Johnson] RE: Johnson Digest, Vol 7, Issue 20

Nice looking Viking II Brian. I think the real gem is that 75A-4 though.
Must be a VERY rare model (judging by the photo of the insides) because it
looks kinda like a Globe Chief 90. :-)

The Viking does look nice, I'm in the process of re-doing mine right now. It
was my original Novice xmtr from 1971 and has been sitting in mothballs for
many years awaiting restoration. Hope it looks as nice as yours when I'm
done.

73,
