[TowerTalk] Viking KW matchbox.

[Finger, Bob]

I paid about $150 several years ago for one that looks beat up on the case,
but functions perfectly.  Not bad, when you consider what $125 in 1955
dollars is worth today!  73 de w9ge

Well,  my kW Matchbox Manual has the brand new price of
$124.50 printed directly on it.  Of course,  that was decades
ago,  hi.  Have no idea what today's price might be.  Mine
works fine,  by the way.  Use it to a 137 foot  long doublet
fed with real open wire twin line.  Mostly used on 80 and
30 meters.
