Nice scans, salemtubes!

I really like that "Duo Band Conical V Beam"

Ive been trying to get some old Allied Catalogs, but so far only a 1965 version. Missed several others. I really want a late 50s catalog. There are some great ole designs from back in the day.

You might be interested in the Popular Science 1957 thread which has scans of vintage atenna designs.

Hey Don, those Archer Antennas seemed to have changed at some point while keeping the same nomenclature...check these out from 1971 Allied/Radio Shack 50th Anniverary Catalog.....first year after Tandy acquisition of Allied.




They had combo deals with rotors as well...
