Yep. Johnson also made the Viking Ranger (a great transmitter) with built-in
VFO, AM and CW. The Navigator (seldom heard them) was a Ranger with no
modulator. The Adventurer was CW only and no internal VFO. Ran about 50
watts input (the common rating, then) with an 807 final.

If I'm not mistaken, E.F. Johnson, despite their generally excellent
transmitters, made one attempt at an SSB rig--the ill-starred
Pacemaker (I think the name is right!). It sounded awful!
