[GreenKeys] Two rare model 11 machines turned up in Finland!

[drlegendre .]

Very neat indeed, and a machine I'm +totally+ unfamiliar with.

So these machines punched code onto tape that required a trained operator
to read it? Or did they print in text? The former makes more sense, as then
the tape could be fed into a reader for re-transmission if needed.

There aren't any DC power supplies visible, so if the loop didn't supply
power, then they'd certainly need a battery or external DC supply for that.
But you'd think that 60mA @ 120V would take quite a battery, to not run
down in short order.
