	For many years in that era the Navy ran a set of HF ISB signals
from Driver Va  with a 100 wpm ITC 850 hz RTTY signal with weather tty
on one sideband and the weather fax FM AFSK tone on the other... that
was 120 RPM weather fax compatible with Alden machines, but I guess they
used other forms of printers too...
