[GreenKeys] Wanted - M28 multi-wire Distributor or TD

[Nick England]

Jim’s message reminds me that as an alternative I could use a M28 Compact
KSR base if anyone has a junker. In the Compact, an electrical keyboard
(like the one in M32) connects 5-wire parallel to a distributor for
serialization.
