Thanks to everyone for the awsome help identifying this machine as a 5
level. IF I was in the market for one this would be a very good machine
to get since it appears to be in excellent shape for it's age and
besides I already have a Lorenz 19 for the 5 level.
I'll keep searching for the rare 33ASR (anybody know of one needing a
new home??).
