[GreenKeys] WU tape reader 1-A

[Nick]

Hello group

Does anyone know how fast the WU Multiplex Transmitter 1-A use to run?
I finished building my own TD from scrap part of a 14TD. Full or normal speed would be six characters a second (60 wpm) but the printer is not happy and I get garbage out only. If I slow down the system (with a time controlled cam) to three characters a second (half speed), the printer is happy.
Wondering if the mechanism of the 1-A is just not capable to keep up with 60 wpm. I also don't know what kind of printer was connected to the 1-A over 100 years ago and how fast that printer was running.
Any info would be appreciated.
