[GreenKeys] itty broken?

[KFIam640 at aol.com]

Larry, I am surprised that WINS still does the TTY sound effect.  KFWB  did 
it here for a long time but finally dropped it a number of years ago.   I wish 
I could remember when we stopped using Model 15 machines at KFI.  I  think it 
was in the late seventies when the Extel machines were put in use by  AP.  
Sometime in the late eighties KFI went to satellite delivered news  from AP which 
fed a computer where the news was stored.  The news  staff eventually started 
reading their news from the computer displays  along with some printouts.  I 
am sure you are correct that many of today's  listeners do not know what the 
sound effect represents.

Marv,  
 
WINS AM in NYC still uses a Model 15 in the background  
continuously....they're an all news station.  I ofter wonder how many of  the listeners have any 
idea of what that sound effect represents   LOL

I feed computer audio output to my Dovetron MPC1000 to drive my Model  15.  
It reminds me of the old time sound of radio station  newsrooms.
