[GreenKeys] So what else can I do with this?

[Pete Lancashire]

Dangerous question, most often asked by someone's significant other/partner.

All my Teletypes are currently in storage, but when the house is back
together things I see are

- Print out the news but current and have some significant oldies stored
up. I had a 15 next to a tube shortwave receiver and TU, since the amount
of RTTY has gone close to zero, I rigged up a small milliwatt HF
transmitter that could be FSK'ed and could demo what it was like before the
Internet.

- I had not thought about Virgil B's use, thanks !

- As done in the past, set up working, hands on demo's for kids. I know of
one 12 y/o where when 18 he told me it swayed his decision to pursue a
mechanical engineering degree. One demo was to have a Teletype print out
SMS text messages.

- Occupy time I don't have.
