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.
