[GreenKeys] FW: TT-107B parts

[Duncan Brown]

At the AWA Museum we have a TT-346A that works with the 11/16" tape.  I 
assumed it was standard, not a modification, but hard to know. It also 
has a lever to move the typewheel out so that it can type over the 
feed-holes.

The 1970 KLI Military catalog for the TT-107 -345 family (p 9-2) gives 
the following :

         "TAPE SPECIFICATIONS: Standard roll, 7/8-inch with edge
    printing, or 11/16-inch non-printing. Reperforator may be readily
    modified for center (over feed holes) printing."


The catalog page also says that only the TT-345 & -346 had the 
"Universal (7/8 in. and 11/16 in.) Tape Guide Assy."


Have fun,
