[GreenKeys] Model 15 parts wanted

[Gary Schulz]

Hello,

This is my first posting to the greenkeys list.  I am attempting to
resurrect my model 15KSR and other accessories that I last used for RTTY
circa 1978.  This equipment has been left getting pretty dusty ever since
that time.  I just brought it all home and I am wondering what the proper
sequence is to bring this machine up after all those years.  There is no
rust on any of it but it is covered with a heavy layer of dust which has
accumulated on all the oiled areas.  Some of the cords are getting a little
stiff and I don't want to cause further harm.  Do you need to worry about
the capacitors going bad like you do on all the other old radio equipment I
have restored?  I presume these are for motor start and other related
functions.

I am also wanting to get an original housing for this machine and a stand
for it.  I also have a Western Union (I guess made by Teletype) tape
puncher and a separate reader as well.  Not sure if that stuff had any
cases around them originally.

Any pointers on proper techniques for resurrection and leads to the
metalwork are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Gary Schulz
