I just installed my ribbon cartridge in the UGC-74B printer and decided
to copy the ARRL billeting that is sent every night on 3.597 Kc 2200Z.
Shift is 170 cycles and the bulletin is sent at 60WPM. The signal was
very strong here in Chicken Land with very little Selective Fading on
the Mark or Space. While I had the UGC-74B hooked up I decided to power
up the CV-89 TU and was amazed that it came right up on line. Its a
great TU that was issued to me via USAF MARS many years ago and has
never failed. I do have it slightly modified with a "Zero Center" meter
which is interesting to watch. While I was in the teletype mode I
decided to hook up the Model 14 and Model 28 and also break out the
Dovetron TU (military Tempest model) . I shot some video of the session.
