Henry,

THe shock mounts are to keep the machine together during the pitch and rolls of the ship when 
underway.

> Hi,
> I have two Model 19 machines that are slightly different and I wonder if anyone knows why. 
> 
> My old 19 (I've had it for over 30 years) has the reperferator counter to the left of the keyboard 
covered by a housing that is part of the entire reperf cover bolted to the printer cover. I just got another 
Model 19 a couple of weeks ago and this one has the reperf counter on the right side of the keyboard 
mounted on an arm that is attached to the keyboard frame 
> 
> Also, this second Model 19 has shockmounts bolted to the table with two metal "skid plates" that the 
printer-keyboard-base sets on. It looks original but I've never seen shockmounts on a teletype table 
before. One thing the shockmounting does is quiets down the whole operation of the machine 
> 
> I guess my questions are....has anyone seen shockmounts used on Model 19s?  Is the Model 19 with 
the reperf counter on the right a non-military machine while the machine with the reperf counter 
integrated into the housing on the left is military? Or, is it an age difference?

> Does anyone have a spare paper tape diverter? It's the little stamped sheet metal part that mounts on 
the reperf cover that diverts the paper tape 90 degrees into the reperferator. This new Model 19 is 
missing that part

> Thanks for any help.
