[GreenKeys] Western Union Dist. Trans. 5032

I need help with where to connect the loop on the above device. It
appears that there is also a loop-driven solenoid that activates the
5-level reader. Without loop current to these additional terminals,
the device just idles.

I would love to set this up to work with my WU standalone punch and
perhaps have the whole thing ship-off text to a 15 RO or WU 14 strip
printer. I'm not even sure what baud the Distributor Transmitter is,
but I have seen my punch and this device working together in an old
Western Union promo movie given to me by Dave Ross.

BTW... I have several Bell Systems related items I wish to part with:

a. Black angle-head flashlight "Bell Systems C" made by C.T. Price
b. 3 Bell related medals (my guess they are "years served" things)

Any help or interest?
