[GreenKeys] How did you acquire your Teletypes?

[John, W9DDD]

Interesting that Signal One was part of ECI.  ECI became part of 
E-Systems some time prior to my time at the Garland division of ESY.  I 
think ECI lost a big contract to an Israeli company and probably shut 
down around the time Raytheon bought ESY.
