[GreenKeys] tt-345a/fg reperf.. is this Army? Navy? need to find manual!

[Duncan Brown]

The pdf manual for the TT-345 (also TT-107 & TT-700 series) that I have 
is "ARMY TM 11-5815-257-12" It is also "AIR FORCE TO 31W4-2FG-1381".  It 
is dated "January 1976", but includes C1,  30 August 1983. So the AF was 
apparently using them, too.  Maybe AF sent their units to Signal Corp. 
for Depot repair??

(the TT-700 series was modified for low-level signalling: +/- 6VDC, < 
100uA.).

All Kleinschmidt Laboratories tape equipment used 7/8" tape and the 
reperforators printed on the wide border on the bottom edge of the tape. 
All the KLI tape readers could read both 7/8" & 11/16" tape, but the 
TT-345/346 reperforators are unique (I think) in that they could handle 
both 11/16" & 7/8" tape.  For 7/8" tape, they would print on the wide 
border (just like on TT-76), but for 11/16" tape, you moved a lever to 
pull the type wheel in slightly and it would print over the feed holes.

Have fun,
