[GreenKeys] FW: Telex refurbishing

[DR HOUSE]

Dear Judi,

It depends on the method used to communicate between the computer and  
the Teletype machine.  Some models use a current interface, others use  
a serial interface and still others use an integrated voice frequency  
modem.

Where are you located?  If one of us was close enough to help out we  
would need to know where you and the machine are.

Please find herein below a conversation I instigated regarding  
refurbishing of a Teletype 33ASR machine.  I am interested in being  
able to use it, if possible, with a computer to print out  
communications. Is this possible? In any case, I am interested in  
refurbishing it.
Thank you in advance for your response.
Kind regards,
Judi Gerhardt

    That's a Model 33ASR Teletype, not old enough to be an antique.
It's from the 1960s or 1970s.  I'm only interested in pre-WWII machines.

    Try Greenkeys Digest.  ("greenkeys at mailman.qth.net")  Someone  
there may be interested.  Also try "http://www.vintage-computer.com/".
There are people interested in the later machines.

    What do you want it to do?  Actual Telex service is still  
available from Easylink, if you really want it.
