    A whole lot more sophisticated than mine, way back when.

    That setup was an HW-8, Micronta dual variable power supply (with both sections tied together and tracking for 12v @ 2+A output), Trac TE-22 keyer, MFJ random wire tuner and SWR bridge...plus a random wire strung up wherever I could find supports.

    For what it was, I made a lot of contacts.
