   Hi Ray,   
      
    HG> Yes I do. I have successfully used the Waters Auto Match. Made in Usa.   
    HG> It is usable on all conventional amateur bands, 10 - 80m.   
      
   RQ> I did a Google and Duckduckgo search anc cannot find the antenna you   
   RQ> mention. Do the manufactures have a web site, or is it sold at an   
   RQ> amateur radio store?   
      
   YES I found the Waters catalog and some additional news letters.   
      
   The company was founded and run by Bob Waters, W1PRI, and entered the   
   amateur field 1963. The address is/was Waters Manufacturing Inc at:   
   Boston Post Road, Wayland, Mass. 01778,   
   Telephone 617-358-2777, Cable TORQUE.   
      
   No internet address as of 1967.   
      
   The list of amateur radio gear was more comprehensive than I remembered.   
   They made Precision Industrial Products originally, before entering the   
   ham radio field.   
      
   The addition of 10,15 and 20m bands was achieved by the "Band-Adder",   
   that was mounted below the original 40 or 80m centrally mounted loading   
   coil.
