I have seen two manuals - 1985 and 1991.

Hi all,

Our UGC136-BX arrived in Duluth, MN this morning -- incredibly well packaged. Ours was in a heavy cardboard box with expanding foam surrounding a huge anti-static bag. The unit was inside, wrapped in foam and tape. The humidity sensors were still "blue" and the 27-year old masking tape was still tenacious. Our unit was manufactured in 1985 by E-Systems and it looks like it was refurbished in 1998 by SPAWAR.

It's a beautiful machine!

Ours came with the hard to source ribbon cartridge, but no power cable, manual, or paper. We have a power adapter coming from eBay and some paper, and we will print a manual once it's scanned.

Here are some photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/zT1HopQRkPjqF3437

Huge thanks to John for taking on this big task... we are incredibly grateful, and will post more to this thread when we have updates.

Thanks,

Peter
