[Johnson] No Challenger Info? Really?

[Artmouton]

I had the Johnson Challenger as a Novice.  When I got back into ham radio 
then into boatanchors, I heard a lot of people wanting to get their Novice 
rigs back.  Somehow a Challenger and an S-107 did not sound like a lot of 
fun any more.
It did work.  I did work 49 states as a Novice - all CW of course, all 
crystal controlled, all with doublet antennas.
It is just not a "fine" rig such as a Ranger - the meter would click and 
clack, but, again, it did work.
Sold it and got an HT-37 as fast as I could after getting my General.
Nuff said.
