Hi Folks:

First of all, I hope that all you had a very Merry 
Christmas...

I finally had a while to play with my newly arrived test 
set. The fist thing I wanted to do was to set it for 20 ma 
loop as per section 5-4 of the manual. It was set 
originally for a 60 ma loop.

I think I have figured out the settings for testing 
teletype machines (ASR-33 and Model 28, etc.) to print out 
the QBF on attached teletype printers.

However, mine came without the normal test cord for 
testing, and only the loopback cord (thankfully I had that 
for setting loop current).

I have ordered a couple of  PJ055 plugs and some large 
alligator clips for connection to the teletype machines. 
Once they come, I will test it using my ASR and KSR 
33's,and then on my Model 28 ASR.

It is a little daunting because of all the settings, but 
from my past experience seeing Ken use his machine on my 33 
printers, I know it will do a great job.

It arrived in pretty well mint condition,  except for its 
missing test cord - Very pleased with it. Once I get down 
some of the basic settings, it be a great help when testing 
these machines...

Once again, Happy Holiday to all, and thank you all for 
being there! You have all been a great help!

Dave
