If you sent them out i didn't get anything but id did get access to them 
thru another message that came through the reflector.  Thanks. BTW, when 
i went thru TTY school they didn't tell us some of the stuff i saw in 
this paperwork.  IT was mainly about maintenance.  We did nothing with 
the stuntbox other than a bit, single case, of trouble shooting.  
However i worked in  a mostly rural area with probably no more than 20 
machines which only the FAA and Highway patrol had any degree of 
complication to them.  Troubles?  Only with the printer itself being 
beat up at 100 WPM  but trouble calls were not that frequent with those 
services.  Mainly came from radio stations when they had a 28 RO and 
they would tear off the paper but not make sure the new paper coming out 
was clear of the hood so it would back up inside and then get eaten.  
Lots of stuffed full of chopped up paper jams.  Otherwise those machines 
ran pretty much trouble free.  I never had a case of trouble with 
stuntbox functions.

I've had several ASR and KSR's here with a KSR remaining.  IT also has a 
3 speed gear shift.  It's about due for a lube job as it's beginning to 
sound a little harsh but the last one it got was many years ago.  Course 
it doesn't run 24/7 either. but i have run a case or more of paper thru 
it in the last several years.

Great machine and i love them to death.  I wonder what will happen to it 
after i'm gone.
