[GreenKeys] The Last Active Morse Code Station in the US - KPH Radio Station - YouTube

KPH would receive telegrams for ships from Western Union on the Model 2B 
(M14) and paste them up on message blanks, just like regular telegrams. 
But then the message would go to a Morse operator to forward the message 
to the specific ship. Messages from ships could be typed on the 2B to be 
sent to WU for delivery.

There were machines to do automatic Morse to 5-bit TTY conversion and 
the reverse. They just got one at KPH a few years ago. Don't remember 
which direction it went in, or whether they were ever used.  The Navy 
had similar machines.

This is where the 28ASR is shown.  She doesn’t talk about it specifically, but likely when she made the original video footage she was saying something about it because she is pointing out the text. She probably skipped that audio because she wants to talk about ship to shore CW, her main topic of the video.
