Also, I don't know where it was used, but RCA Communications had their
ARQ system that used the Moore code, a 4 out of 7 error detecting
code that would automatically ask for a retransmit if it received a
character in error.  Much like the more recent AMTOR, but I don't
know quite how much like.

I once saw a photo of a keyboard perforator of the GPE family but
clearly made for something like 4 our of 7 code.  (Or maybe it was
3 out of 7, but in any case an error detecting cdode.)
