That would be me.

My TT-30/AGA-1 came from an estate sale and is unused.  I believe it has a 
115 volt AC governed motor in it.

I don't have handy any pictures of the thing, but the mechanics and 
keyboard are quite like the Model-31's I have pictures of here.  Mine has 
no case. I assume it was used in aircraft such as the Navy P3 patrol plane.

I have the Radio Operators pages of a NAVAIR publication on the P-3, but it 
shows the TT-264 in the P-3. That teletype looks like a MITE variation and 
not at all like the TT-30 or TT-31.

I have a few pictures of the Model 31 from the web and one eBay auction. 
I'll forward those to Evan separately, along with my notes file on the things.
