[GreenKeys] ITTY Europe channel

[Steve Garrison]

Martin,
I found i-Telex very easy to join!  For an initial cost of $200.00 US.  Now I realize that in and of itself might be a road block for some, but after that it wasn't really all that hard.

There are two flavors, so to speak, of i-Telex, one that uses TTYs that were already configured to use the Telex system, and the other for those of us, like myself, that had plain Jane TTYs.

The way I see it, if one has the where with all to take an old, maybe non-functioning, piece of machinery and get it back in shape to work again, then they should be more than capable of getting an i-Telex system up and running.  Assuming you have a working Internet connection at your location.
