Specific information related to Two Way Radio use:
This key is a shorter version of the BF-10A.
The Progress Line was an all-tube trunk-mount radio, the TPL was a hybrid mobile with the transistorized receiver built into the oversize control head and the tube transmitter in the trunk. The TPL radio control heads used the shallow BF10 lock because space inside a TPL head was at a premium. It is unknown if the BF10 was never used on a radio cabinet.The lockfor the BF10 key has only two wafers, and is very shallow. A lock for the BF10A key has five wafers. The BF10 key is made using the first two cuts of the BF10A key, so either the BF10 or the BF10A key will open the BF10 lock. However, a BF10 key will NOT open a BF10A lock.
