I have two Flesher 170's and they work just about as good as my ST-6's. 
I use one to drive my Model 19 & 32 for daily ITTY copying also. They also
have a good loop supply built in. You can get them cheap.

Several people have told me that the Flesher units are not worth 
Fooling with. I have one I bought on eBay for $9.00 and have never 
Tried to use it. 
The Dovetrons are about the best TUs out there but the Tempest 
Version has no high voltage loop supply. You need a separate circuit 
To convert the low level mil interface to a loop. 
If I were you I would look for a MPC-1000C or 1000R or 1000CR. If 
You can't find one of those the HAL ST-6 and ST-6000 both have high 
Voltage loop supplies built in. 
 
I have a spare HAL ST-5000 but I do not know if it has a built in 
Supply. I will look in the manual and let you know.

HI 
I was wondering if any one could let me know if this would be a good 
Unit to buy to hook up to a teletype machine 
To receive rtty. I have a Flesher Corporation TU-300 that I am 
Currently trying to get adjusted. So far I have tried to get 
RY RY and keep getting TTTT. The up side is that I finally got one of 
These to peck out something. So I look at this a 
Positive thing. I have read that some are using Dovetron units but I 
Do not know what the difference in them are. I 
Am waiting on a couple of books and have read some of the manuals 
That I have but they do not cover this. 
Any help for a newbie will be appreciated. 
 
Thanks 
Gerald
