[GreenKeys] Teletype Demo

[Duncan Brown]

AL,

We have run HeavyMetal  on a Win 7 machine at the AWA Museum. Heavy 
Metal needs a COM port to run. We use it for local National Weather 
Service reports.

Paul, W2TTY, made us a RasPi that brings in ITTY from the Internet and 
outputs audio to a FSK converter and then to another printer for demos.

have fun,

(also chief TTY op & repairman)
