[GreenKeys] Heavy Metal Usage in the Deaf Community

[hwhall at compuserve.com]

 I have a Model 15 that was used by a deaf couple maybe a decade or two ago.  Holding magnet type selector.  The magnet was fed directly from an acoustic handset coupler unit, so not much in the way of "additional equipment" - just the TTY, the coupler, and some connecting & power cords.

Hi all,


I know that some of the old machines (M15, M19, probably M28, probably others) were used by the deaf community back before the smaller, less expensive machines were manufactured specifically for deaf use over POTS (TDDs).


I'm just curious-- do we have any deaf on the list here? And does anyone know how common this was back in the day? I've guessed it probably wasn't extremely common in the community due to the expense, additional equipment required to use over POTS, and the significant maintenance and learning threshold, but I really don't know for sure.
