Standard model automatic telegraph key. Notice by guest Herman Willemsen, VK2IXV:
Kenco bugs were usually made by Kenmore Co. Boston Mass.
Here pics of my Kenco bug, but in writing on top is the manufacturer Raylynn Mfg Co. Boston Mass.
Well, it could be that the bug had to be made by more than one independent manufacturer by government order.

A guest from Australia has sent those pictures with the following questions:
Who knows something about this Raylynn Company?
This looks like a Kenco key, which were usually made by Kenmore Co. Boston. Kenco bugs did not display the name of their maker.
This bug, identical to a Kenco bug has however the manufacturer's name Rayco Raylynn Mfg. Co. written on top of Bakelite base.Does anyone have more information about this company please? Was it a forerunner of Kenmore?
