[ARC5] Seeking Extinct Wire

[J Mcvey]

Interesting device. I never heard of it before now..  So the operator had to crank that wheel while copying code?
Maybe you can find a spool of recording wire that was used on the precursor of the tape recorder.?
I also noticed that the magnets are arranged in opposition (S-S) . I don't this will "write" a "direction" of the domains as much as N-S arrangement might.?    On Thursday, May 29, 2025 at 11:24:53 AM EDT, David Stinson <arc5 at ix.netcom.com> wrote:  
 
   Looking for what is probably the last spool of 
 "soft iron" cotton- or silk-covered 40-gauge wire.  
 Google finds iron wire, but too large.
 
 Thanks,
 Dave S.
