[GreenKeys] Teletype Model 15 KSR on Craigslist in the LasVegasarea

[Don Robert House]

Yes,

The LST that Perry works on has one too.  I hated to give it up, but I  
cannot
keep everything here to have it scrapped if something happens to me.   
I also
gave the museum the vintage WWII terminal unit to go with the machine.

I am restoring a 37 ASR this winter which will be shipped to the  
Communications
Museum when it is ready.  I will also be putting some things up for  
sale.
No one person should try to hoard all of the stuff because good homes  
are
sometimes hard to find for Teletype equipment. Also giving some of it  
new
homes provides more room for new additions.. he he he...

I am going to talk to two museums in the spring.  One is in Lake  
Geneva, WI
and the other is in Union, IL.  Both are well funded and prospering,  
which is
unusual these days.  I would like to put operating displays in them  
and give
a talk once in a while.  I miss being a docent at the San Diego Computer
Museum, which you all know is now in storage at the SDSU Library.

The rare cabinet George is writing about is really nice as it allows  
quick access
from the front to all the workings without having to move or take  
apart the parts
of the cabinet.  Jim Haynes and I suspect these were used in both  
ships and
communications rooms where space was at a minimum.

Best of the season to all,

Don
