[GreenKeys] Teletype Model 33 ASR vs. ASR33

[DR HOUSE]

Russ,

I have often wondered this myself.  I have never seen any  
documentation that reverses the description and yet so many folks  
refer to the machine backwards.  As far as I can remember ALL TELETYPE  
machines are described first with a NUMBER and then followed by  
letters describing the functionality.

How about epyteleT RSA 33  ?

Maybe someone on the list will know.  When and why did the Teletype 33  
ASR become an ASR33?

I recently saw a note posted here that used the name "ASR33" and I've  
seen it elsewhere.  Sometimes the name is completely inverted so that  
Teletype 33 ASR is called a ASR 33 Teletype.   I've heard of mass  
hysteria - is this a version of mass dyslexia?

Thanks and 73
Russ WA3FRP
