Corn,
I echo the sentiments about the Johnson Matchboxes, both models.  The so
called "low power" one was of course in the context of the 50's where 100
per cent AM modulation sent the power up on peaks.  The construction of
their smaller one is easily equivalent to so called high power ones today,
among the L and Tee tuners.

Another good Zepp transmatch, and parallel line unit is the Z match made by
Harvey Wells.  These turn up in swaps from time to time down here.  Not
quite the giant as the big Johnson, but probably robust for the 100 watt
crowd and anything they might try with it.

73, Stuart K5KVH
