Hey Duncan. Do any model 17s survive?

Thanks, Eugene! That is a good video.

Teletype Corp made a compatible machine. It was known as the Model 17.
Its original purpose was to be a mobile printer because it is such a simple printing mechanism (the original dot-matrix printer).  But I think most of the M17 units were used to monitor German Hell transmissions during WWII. (Although Teletype Corp did make a Hell transmitter that converted a 5-bit Baudot tape to Hell format)

Have fun,

Duncan
