Now that's showing your age Joe!
The AF-67 was my favorite AM TX. We used to call it the poor man's Viking
Ranger.
I think I read a few years ago where someone had resumed building or was
building a copy of the Master Mobile.

Plus think how cool it is for the person your talking to on the other
end to know your talking with someone doing CW mobile. I want to
practice at doing it some more to get better at it. I think a nice
Elmac AF-67 with a PMR-6 receiver would be fun to use! Oh, can't
forget the Master Mobile antenna!
