Good morning Gentlemen,
I have two "QBF" units for sale suitable for 50 baud teletype systems.
These are about the size of one of the old 5000 series relays and are a mechanical device consisting of a coded disc with pick up brushes and an electromagnetic ratchet rotating arrangement. The units plug into 18 way Jones type sockets.
The message containd on the disc is Baudot coded:-
"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" plus 'line feed', 'carriage-return' and 'letters'
(hence the reference to QBF units!)
Normally found in teletype test equipments. Anyone interested contact me direct please.
Regards and all good wishes,
Clive GW3WEQ
