I no longer remember the exact details, but there was a Model 28 stuntbox
modification back in the days of Irv Hoff, W6FFC. There was an autostart
net, and not everyone was fond of Irv's talkativeness. So some prankster
started up his machine and sent nothing but LFs until all the paper was
unrolled.
We worked out something along the lines of LF doesn't line feed but CR
both returns the carriage and line feeds; however successive CRs don't
continue to feed out paper.
I wonder if I still have a 28 with that mod installed, or if I let it get
away from me.
