There's also a TT-298 version of the MITE. So far, the variations I've
seen are : KSR, RO, ASR (what a bomb!), 110VAC and 26VDC. And,
of course, they come in Navy gray or Marine OD green.
Some of the MITE's were "made" by a company in Paramus, NJ, called
Teleprinter Corp. That's the same outfit that used to sell 14's and so on
to us young kids in the 1960's. Not sure how they managed to get
their names on the MITE ID tag, but there it is. I also think this is the
same outfit that got nailed by the Gov't. for stripping old TTY's, cleaning
the parts, putting them in new envelopes and selling the parts to the US
Gov't. as
"new" parts.
A MITE is a a lot like a 32/33...really neat if they work...a piece of junk
if
they don't; there's no in-between.
