Here's one - a younger version of my buddy Harry who is now N9CQX, and
who was then an officer with the River Forest IL Police Dep't. He's
posing in the dispatch area where a M28 KSR can be seen, likely
connected to what is now at least called the LEADS system. He can't
recall the purpose of the other machine that is partially visible behind
the typewriter. Maybe someone knows what model it is and what it might
have been used for - the blank panel on the right looks like where the
dial would be on the later ASR-33 telex/twx machines Harry said the
real dispatch operator showed him how to punch a tape as a souvenir ;-)
