Greetings !
After owning this terrific teletype machine since the early 1970's it
has come to the time now that I decided to part with it and let another TTY
enthusiast enjoy using it as much as I have for many years !
It is in excellent physical as well as 100% working condition and has
the optional 60, 75, 100 WPM internal gearshift mechanism. It is currently
set up to run on a 60 ma. current loop. It comes with the original TTY
Corp. Adjustments Manual, an extra typebox, extra brand new stock ribbons
(2), and a couple of rolls of canary TTY paper. Included with it also is my
homebrew Data Technology Model DT-600 RTTY Terminal Unit with AFSK board
set up for both narrow (170 Hz) and wide (850 Hz) shift. This unit has a
built in 60 ma. current loop supply. It too, works 100%, just as it did
when I originally built it in 1973 at age 17, at present I find that 47
years have passed. The 'TU' also has a built-in TTL logic interface for use
with a PC if desired. Also included is an extra, NOS 'Sunt Box', still in
the original TTY Corp. box and rugged, steel TTY stand. This machine is the
standard 'Desktop Model' 28KSR. This machine came from the former Scranton,
PA Western Union office in 1973. TTY Corp. Typebasket ID Tag Info: LP 26 RX
AS, S/N: 277065. TTY Corp. Base ID Tag Info: LK 12 BRJ, S/N: 118401. I
highly doubt that you would be able to find a cleaner, well maintained unit
anywhere as these pieces of history have become VERY scarce, especially in
the excellent condition of this machine ! I am asking $200.00, local pickup
only or I would be willing to deliver it within a radius of 100 miles or
meet the prospective buyer somewhere in between my QTH and yours but I do
not wish to travel any further than 100 miles from my QTH. If interested
please e-mail me at: fixxyourpc at gmail.com or TEXT ONLY PLEASE (NO CALLS)
to 570-407-3955 and I will telephone, text or e-mail you upon receipt of
your message. I have attached a pix of the machine to this listing but I am
unsure if the post has the ability to include a picture. Please contact me
if you wish to see any additional pictures of the machine.
Thank you for your interest ! 73 ! Mark, WN3SIX FN21
