[GreenKeys] Salvaged Bell System 28

[larryradio at att.net]

Yes Jim,.....it sez New Jersey Bell Telephone in orange on the base and the 
drawings are unique to NJBT engineering....not ATT numbers on them.

Someone cut a 4 inch dia. hole in the right side and installed a muffin fan. 
I took out the fan an put a stainless plate over the hole.  I learned a 
lesson....leaving the machine on for a few hours, the motor got the inside 
very hot and the codes from the stunt box, ZA FX and RZ failed to operate 
the magnet that unblinds the printer.....it just got way too hot inside.  In 
the morning, after being off all nite, the codes worked just fine again.  I 
think I have to put the fan back in.
