The Benton Harbor Lunch Box

Heathkit used to make these portable units for 10, 6 and 2m AM back when.

I've seen them from time to time at Hamfests, and typically (not always) they look pretty rough with either frayed or incomplete wiring harness, no mic, so on and so forth.

Anyone have a 'complete' unit ? Anyone have one on the air ?

Scott's Blog

Doesn't look like Stan has added much of late, so I'll let you guys know that I posted a bit of stuff at my blog, http://kd5njr.blogspot.com/

Gene has some good stuff over at his site as well. Check it out, http://ae5ft.blogspot.com .
Shortwave listening, some new modes for FM rigs, and vertical antennas.
