[GreenKeys] Interesting BRPE on eBay

It has a BRPEB11 base and LMU6 motor but I do not know what the actual
punch unit BRPExx model number is. But it looks like it is the adjustable
5-8 level punch with selector for 11/16” or 1” tape. You can see 3 switches
to “omit” code levels 0/6/7 and also the pull tab to move the tape guide.
Very flexible! Appears to be geared for 1100 wpm (110 chars/sec) which can
certainly spit out the tape.
I am semi-interested but am mostly hoping that my machinist buddies can
create a new punch block so I’ll be able to convert my 6-level typesetting
BRPE into 5-level.
This eBay machine seems desirable for vintage computer people given the
8-level 1” capability.
If one of you folks gets it, I’d appreciate photos of the punch block and
adjustable tape guide selector mechanisms.

Not related to seller, etc.
