Default Info on Nye Viking Company MB-V-A Tuner
Bob,

Nye Viking was originally run out of Washington but when the son took over
about 1996 he moved Nye to Idaho.

Nye Viking bought the Viking name from EF Johnson. He only built the speed
key and the tuners. The Nye Viking tuners were not the Viking 250 or KW
tuners but an entirely new set of tuners. There is a review in QST back in
1992 by Jim Cain.
The Nye tuner is not very good for 160. Please read the article though.
