Later model TWX would be converted to ASCII 33 with a UCC-6, some cover parts and a tape reader solonoid in the printer change. TWX soloid is 48 VAC. Needs 120 VAC or you will get smoke.

You are correct. Normally the 33 ASR tape reader works in Line mode
the same as Local mode. I have been removing the DEC reader control
card for most all of my restored 33's until recently when quite a few
people were asking for that option.
eah, when you find a 33 ASR on ebay, if it has the DEC computer mod installed,
hose go for big bucks to people who are trying to restore old DEC computers.
he TWX models, on the other hand, are almost worthless in terms of $.
