A QST review was in Nov. '84.  It has xray pictures showing power resistors
and a scrap circuit board unconnected to anything.  QST measured less than
1.4:1 swr from 160m to 6m without any antenna attached, just what you would
expect from a dummy load.  Evidently it was sold in large quantities to the
US Gov.  Cost for the 200W unit I have was $600. So I guess I own an
interesting and dubious bit of ham history.  Luckily no one else wanted it
so I got it for the minimum bid of a quarter.

Tnx to all for info, Ed
