Hello Dave,

I never even heard of an AUTODIN machine until
recently, George identified the machine that I have,
it has two T.D.'S One (inboard) is a parallel unit
(LX3)the outboard T.D. is a standard LXD, it had at
one time a LARP aux parallel reperforator, the LESU is
unfamiliar type to me as well(LESU 60), this unit was
used for crypto, but no TEMPEST stuff inside, a very
strange lady indeed, I have no idea where this machine
originated from, but I will do my best to get Her on
the the air, or die trying, my Wife has threatened me
with death over Teletype equipment that has migrated
into the house, smells good, though.
