Andy,


I believe that is normal.  Wayne is the expert on 32's and will chime in
but from his advice to me, what you are seeing is normal.  If you wedge
a pencil or something else to keep the dial turned clockwise you will be
able to type in Local mode.

Dear GK folks - my Teletype M32 is outwardly in nice condition and I
am finally getting it prepped... with a view to doing some i-telex.

It runs in open when powered up, and although pressing the Local
button doesn't seem to do anything, if I turn the dialer clockwise the
chattering stops and I can type locally without issue.

Any thoughts on this?  Attached are some photos.

cheers!  Andy
