Any mention of the TXC-1 naturally gets my attention.

I too have a TXC-1 with converter, power supply, speaker and the correct table.  

I've often wondered if it might be the only remaining operating TXC-1.  Does anyone know of another operating unit?

I had mine in operation at the Military Radio Collectors Group meet in San Luis Obispo.  It was turnin' and burnin' and howlin' and receiving a message from the Territory of Hawaii about an air raid.  Apparently, this was no drill.

Photos?  Sure.  See:

I'd be interested in contacting any other military fax fans.  There can't be too many of us.

Best,

RD
