[GreenKeys] Whooppiieee 28 ASR

[James Bloomfield]

    I have just acquired a 28 ASR.  Wanted one since 1971 when I visited a 

    Ham who had wall to wall RTTY. 

 

    My radio room is 6 feet off the floor of the barn.  So the first thing I
had to do 

    was remove everything inside the cover to reduce the weight so I, with
help, could 

    lift the machine into the Radio Room.  I know I will hit snags when I
re-assemble the 

    machine.  I don't think I have broken anything - -yet. 

 

    I will have to do very little cleaning - it was well taken care of.  It
does not need to 

    be dunked into the gunk tank. 

 

    Now I need to learn a lot of stuff.  Can someone put me in touch with a
cd of the manual? 

 

    My brother is retired Navy - communications - and was sent to Navy '28'
school - so I am 

going to defer to him all questions on oil.  We won't open that bag again.

 

It will take me a few days to clean and re- assemble the machine.  Then I'll
need the cd 

of the manual to trace wiring to see how closely it follows 'factory'
wiring.  

 

It is a Bell Telephone machine and I believe the date I found is the
manufacturing date of 

1964

 

I have previously acquired a HAL 6000 and I think that will feed the signal
to & from

my transceiver.

 

Any and all help will be appreciated.
