Correction: I think it was a 28KSR that eventually was no longer there. Maybe you replaced it with the model 19.

If you can get a Terminal Unit to receive it, then you will be displaying a comm system rather than just a teletype. A Terminal Unit with a tuning scope would add visual appeal to your visitors as well. If you want to go this route I will give you a raspberry PI already set up like I did for Duncan, or you can use your existing raspberry PI and just receive the stream and send it to your TU.  You could even put a speaker in the display that a visitor could turn on to actually hear the transmission tones.
