[GreenKeys] TELEX Answerback format

[Olaf DL8OBH]

In terms of Hennings message, please look here:
http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-F.60-198811-S

The (English) PDF direkt link:
https://www.itu.int/rec/dologin_pub.asp?lang=e&id=T-REC-F.60-198811-S!!PDF-E&type=items

Thats the "INTERNATIONAL TELECOMMUNICATION UNION CCITT F.60 
Recommendation" which describes in chapter 3.4.3 (from page 9) the 
"Answerback composition"

While searching I found here this funny thing:

"NETWORK CONNECTION SPECIFICATION
FOR CONNECTION OF
50-BAUD OR 300-BAUD SUBSCRIBER
TELEX EQUIPMENT
TO THE PUBLIC TELEX NETWORK
IN HONG KONG"

http://www.ofca.gov.hk/filemanager/ofca/en/content_404/hkta2005.pdf
Pease look at chapter 6.6, PAGE 14

Have fun and merry christmas !!!
