[GreenKeys] Another Interesting e-Bay Item

[Jeff Seidel]

Hi all,

I will have to dig thru my US&S Archives (photos and development sheets) 
and see if I can come up with an answer.  US&S was big on doing 
everything they could on carrier.  Perhaps they used the same pair to 
control both time code equipment and teletype.  I can definitely 
Identify the old tube type carrier equipment in the photo and what 
appears to be 506 Field Line Code Storage Units.

If  I find anything I will report back.

Have a great week
Jeff Seidel
