Subject: [GreenKeys] Various items for sale

Gentlemen,

I am cleaning out (as ‘suggested’ by SWMBO) and have available a number of
teletype related items that may be of interest to readers of the GreenKeys
list.  They are being offered here first for the benefit of the members of
this great list.  Any items not sold after a short period will be listed on
that popular auction site.

The gear below was purchased new and used only by me (except where noted
otherwise) at my former location in New Jersey and here in California
through the early 1990s.  Some of you may remember that I was active in
APLink and WinLink and helped Vic Poor, W5SMM, write and debug that fine
software.  Anyway, my WinLink system was taken off the air about ten years
ago; the gear has been stored inside ever since.  I can’t easily test any of
it now so you’d better consider everything in as-is condition.  All
suggested prices are plus packing and shipping, unless you pickup, of
course.

1. AEA AMT-1
   Peter, G3PLX, designed the original AMTOR converter and then AEA
manufactured a version of it.  This one has quite a few modifications, some
Peter’s and some mine – most are documented.
   Complete with manual and other documentation. s/n 252  $30

2. Dovetron MPC-1000CR Regenerative RTTY Terminal Unit (E - Series):
   Includes the following optional features:
   - BBP-100 Binary Bit Processor
   - SSD-100 Solid State Cross-Display (no scope tube)
   - TSR-400D Signal Regeneration, Speed Conversion, Digital Autostart &
Baudot-ASCII Code Translation
   This is the rack-mount version with normal connections (not TEMPEST).
   Complete with manuals for all options.  s/n CR943  $150

3. Frederick 1202RA VF Telegraph Demodulator:
   The Frederick 1202R Demodulators are designed to receive audio FSK
signals. A Model 1202R can be used to terminate any single channel from a
multi-channel voice frequency terminal group.  The Model 1202RA covers a
frequency range of 425 Hz to 3315 Hz in eighteen 170 Hz steps.  The
frequency shift is +/-42.5 Hz from center.
   Purchased used, one manual available.  $30, $50 for the pair

4. Frederick 1202RB VF Telegraph Receiver:
   The Frederick 1202R Demodulators are designed to receive audio FSK

frequency shift is +/-30 Hz from center.

5. HAL ARQ1000 Error Correction Terminal:
   This unit was used with the DS-3100 system below to add AMTOR to the
mailbox.  This is only a code converter (TOR to/from ASCII or Baudot) - data
in and out; no audio; it needs an external TU.
   Complete with original manual.  s/n 108  $50

6. HAL CT2200 Communications Terminal:
   This is an early 'glass TTY'.  The internal TU has performance like an
ST-5, perfect for use with your local VHF RTTY repeater.  This unit started
life as a CT-2100 and was later upgraded.  Unit requires an external video
monitor, standard NTSC 75 ohm.  I have but one can’t ship it.  If you’re in
the area and will pickup it’s included.
   Complete with KB-2100 keyboard and set of four original manuals.  $75

7. HAL RS-2100 RTTY Scope:
   Features a loop supply for heavy metal TTY machines as well as 1" CRT for
RTTY tuning aid.  Works with most TUs.
   Two available, $40

8. HAL SPT-1 Spectra-Tune Tuning Indicator:
   Works with most TUs.
   No manual, sorry.  Cables attached.  $25

9. HAL SPT-2 Spectra-Tune Tuning Indicator:
   Was used with the HAL PCI-3000 modem (a PC plug-in card).
   Manual included, but I haven’t found the cables, sorry.  $20

10. HAL ST-6 Demodulator:
   This one has been hacked on a bit.  I got it used and then made some
changes, as I recall.  By the looks of the front it may include a UART for
regeneration.  It does include the AK-1 tone generator.
   Complete with manual. $50

11. Info Tech M-600 A Multimode Code Receiver:
   Complete with original manual and rack-mount option.  $35

12. Info Tech M610 RTTY Scope:

   These are marked Eastern Specialties Z 3201.
   I have two boxes with a dozen ribbons per.  $10 per box of 12

15.  Ribbons for Model 28(?):
   These were actually purchased for the old Epson dot matrix printers and
come with a blank take-up spool.  I am pretty sure they also fit the Model
28. They are marked Black Pearl Spool Ribbons, Order Number 6252.
     I have two six-packs and several singles.  $5 per six pack or $10 for
the lot

*** NOTE:  I am not in a position to ship the two items below.
*** PICKUP ONLY - San Francisco bay area.

HAL DS3100 System, c/o DS3100 ASR Video Display Terminal, MSO3100 Message
Storage Option, MPT3100 Message Processing Terminal, DSK3100 Disk Storage
and RMX-3100:
   The DS3100 (s/n 758) c/o a 12" green CRT (DV3000) bolted atop the
keyboard/electronics package; the MSO3100 and MPT3100 are installed
internally.  The DSK3100 (s/n 182) and RMX3100 (s/n 104) are in separate 3
1/2" rack mount cabinets.  A DS3100 is the last and best electronic RTTY
terminal prior to the use of personal computers.  This is the system I
installed in New Jersey in 1982 for the use of Vic Poor, W5SMM, while he was
sailing the Atlantic.   That experience inspired APLink, the predecessor to
WinLink.
   A complete set of original manuals is included.  I think I can locate
most of the original cables.  A floor stand with custom terminal board is
included.
   *** Pick up only, SFO bay area.  $500 OBO

Teletype Dataspeed Model 40 Line Printer:
   This is a real line printer - also called a band printer.  The type
pallets ride in a band that rotates at high speed over the entire paper
width (~15"); there is a fixed hammer at each of the 132 character positions
that strikes as the correct character comes flying by.  This printer is the
132 column version (40P202) in a table-top cabinet that measures 22" W by 8
5/16" H by 14 7/32" D and weighs in at 56 pounds.  The data interface is
serial, RS-232 like.  I had it working several years ago and it is a sight
to behold - as noisy as it is big and heavy!  The ultimate heavy metal!
   Complete with volumes I and II of the 1980 Printer Shop Manual.  I also
have a Radio Shack printer floor stand for it to sit on, a box of 132 column
sprocket feed paper and a box and a half of ribbons.
   *** Pick up only, SFO bay area.  I will consider donating this beast to a
museum or other non-profit organization.  Best Offer, especially attractive
if you come and get it and take it to a good home.

Pictures of most items are available at
