[GreenKeys] Teletype Specification 5761S wanted

[Nick England]

Yep - that's basically it. I'd just like to add the spec to my on-line
collection
The parts are illustrated on page 5 of this tools book -
www.navy-radio.com/manuals/tty/570-005-800TC-6612.pdf

And the FAA modifications manual says
MODIFICATION PROCEDURE
l - Place 151627 rod between end plates of typing unit.
2 - Insert 152258 threaded post through end plates into 151627 tapped
rods and tighten in place.
3 - Insert 153809 supporting post assembly (see para. 2.a and b spec.
5761S).
