Thanks guys! 

Simon, looks like you have the card-edge compatible reader/punch version. I think there's some new old stock Friden cards on ebay right now if you want the full experience.

Also a big Thank You to Gary Oliver for the link to the 7/8" paper rolls, exactly what I needed (and what you see in the vid).

A little history you might find amusing. The Flexo was only punching 5 of 6 holes and had a role of 11/16" tape in it, and anything punched would read back as gibberish. What the previous owners (civil engineering service) had done was pull the wire on punch #6 and recoded the keyboard to ITA2! This way, results from the LGP-30 could be sent directly over their model 32 Telex machine to the field.  -C
