Mike  - for some reason, i have a manual for the Kay Mega-Node   Its dated 
1953 and 1958.  It uses a Sylvania 5722 noise diode.  Freq.  range was 5 to 
220 mc.  If someone needs the manual, let me know.
 
As i remember, the Kay Mega-Sweep was a more popular unit.  it used  the 
beat freq. from two X-band klystrons (2k25) to provide a wide sweep  range.

I  rescued this from the dumpster - the woman told me that it was in her  
grandmother's house when they were cleaning it out. I have no idea what  
it is, aside from being a "noise generator". As noted in the image  
referenced below, it was made by Kay Electronics in Pine Brook NJ (not  
far from Boonton NJ, home of Boonton Electronics and Aircraft Radio,  
etc.). I am not likely to even turn it on, as I don't know the condition  
of the internals. BAMA came up empty, and I certainly am not going to  
pay $25 for a manual for a boat anchor like this unless it is useful for  
something.

Any  (constructive) comments would be  appreciated,
