[GreenKeys] Need a UGC-136 teleprinter (or 46) ?

[Eric Moore]

The storage/transport/distribution will cost more than the teleprinters.

I have done this before with terminals, whoever does this, if anyone does,
is a mensch, and I will take 2 😂

I am surprised though we have no greenkeyers near vegas. I know a guy I
think is there who would help.
