David,

If you’re using TeraTerm, check the “Binary” checkbox in the send file dialog and the LFs from your file will be sent to the TTY.

Note that the 60ma interface board you built has an option to insert CR/LF at a column you can specify.

Thank you to the many people that helped get this running.  Special thanks to Mike, John, Harold, Jim and of course Mr Rtty.

Now that it is working, and I can send text to it, I am finding that formatting is of particular importance.  Is anyone aware of a TTY text formatter, something I can send text to and it inserts CR/LF at the appropriate line character count (70ish I think)?  I am finding that a stream of text, even with a line break in notepad, is repeating over the last line, so it must be missing or suppressing the LF when sending to a serial port connected to the terminal unit.

If something like this does not exist, would it be useful?


Next stop for this machine is to get mounted to an M35a2 shelter truck (Winter Field Day 2024, January 27-28 – Stickelman.net) on shock mounts as a display piece for car shows and amateur radio events.  It wont be usable on the air directly, but I can print to it and people seem to enjoy seeing this kind of thing.  Last car show I was at I played RTTY noise on the radio and it drew in a handful of old RTTY operators familiar with the sound.

I would like to add a signal corps TG-7 (preferably) or other Model 15, something that I can use on air, so if anyone has one laying around, I would be interested.  I ended up with that iRL terminal unit that should work as the intermediary between radio and teleprinter.
