indicator lamps in the filament and hv circuits, Use the
power supply kit for your favorite tube type transmitter or

New straight key Kit for cw (code) transmitting. Key uses a micro
switch for the contacts. Micro switch contact life runs anywhere
from 100,000 to 1,000,000 closures. Thats a lot of cw! The use of
micro switches is not new to cw keys, but some of the other
features of this switch make it worthwhile to the beginner or to
the expert/collector. Might make a great presentation gift for your
club. Includes a solid oak base, oak saddle for the switch
housing, and a clever mix of household items that truly make
this a conversation piece. Use it next SKN. This is a kit, and will
go together easily. There is a couple solder joints, some screws
and spacers to install and adjust, and, of course the knob
assembly itself.

micro switch controlled straight key kit.
Counter
Telegraph key kit which  you assemble yourself. One photo shows the key
assembled. You will receive your key in parts as shown in the other photo.  It
assembles easily with the included instruction  booklet.  The redesigned key is
functional but is not intended as your ham shack "key of choice". Lots of fun to
assemble and/or share in your school classroom or amateur radio instruction
classes. Or with the children or grandchildren. Uses a bent pcb as the
combination spring and contact assembly. The key paddle is a poker chip; the
key knob is an upside down candle holder. The "beam" is half a clothes p;in.
The key swivel is a tooth pick. The base and saddle are Amish prepared oak
wood.
Quite a conversation piece! Clever use of household items to make a telegraph
key just like the kids of the 1930's and 1940's might have done. The soldering is
done for you. (May contain lead in the solder).  These are available in
classroom quantities - please inquire.

favorite crystal set, regenerative receiver, Walkman, or any headphone
device in and hear the output through a low impedance (4 or 8 ohm)
speaker .The sound output is soft (quiet room level) mellow, and illustrates
the magic of vacuum tube amplification. The amplifier now includes a
volume control and knob with hook up instructions. All resistors are now
color identified for your building convenience. You provide common  
interconnecting cables and 8 ohm speaker and 12 volt power supply.  With
tubes tested and warranted. .
