Gil,
I am not sure of the designation, but the M33, 35, 37 all had the
capability to use an electronic selective calling unit, called
STUNTRONICS. The unit fit in the base and had jumpers to set the
address for the machine. This was especially important for the Model
33 that needed to be turned on only when it needed to be, due to wear
factors and limited stuntbox functions. As I recall the Magnetic
Tape Terminal 4210 could also use the selective calling unit.
Of course the model 35 and 37 also had normal stuntbox capability.
In the case of the M37 the stuntbox also had extention cables to
control such features as red/black ribbon shift, and on-line tab set
and tab clear.
