[GreenKeys] 4/1 and the XASR

[Ralph Irish]

I have seen photos of 28 cabinets with  TWO  keyboards and printers, but never three.  I suspect
that the photo below is a good 'Photoshop' end result.  And, I suspect that today's date may also
have something to do with that image!

Note that the right and center keyboards have NO  TD to send the tapes that can be generated.  The
left one might have a TD, but it is hard to tell.  Nothing obvious, anyway.

A cabinet with two setups would make sense in the space-saving.  (Provided that there was a TD
somewhere along the line!)

An interesting story at the link below.  All new to me.

Thanks for passing this along.

73,

Ralph - W8ROI

Is the "28 XASR" described here http://www.rtty.com/development/teletype/model-28s/model-28s.htm a real machine? An elaborate joke? The picture is rather suspiciously constructed...
