A couple folks I can recommend who I think are both members 
here,
Richard: Nick England K4NYW who I *think* has some knowledge 
of the
Press Wireless end of things and John Poulton K4OZY who is a 
big TMC
buff. Perhaps one or the other may jump in.

Good luck -

    Both of them have been kind enough to write me. John is 
doing research on the history of TMC and Nick sent some 
helpful information. I have always been fascinated by TMC 
equipment although I don't (yet) have any and their slightly 
tongue in cheek advertising made their ads standouts. Their 
industrial design was also superb.
