[GreenKeys] FTGH Mite keyboard

[Josh Bensadon]

Thank you Duncan,    1919 must have been a wonderful time.  It's strange to think of life 100 years ago, but then again, it's strange to think of life with covid in 2020.  I guess the more things change....

Josh,

There are a lot of variations in the upper case letters of 5-bit TTYs.
But Western Electric was using upper case "S" for "BELL" in 1919 and all
the US military machines I've seen use upper case "S" for BELL.
Somebody used upper case "J" for BELL, but I've never seen upper case
"G" used for BELL.

Have fun,

Duncan,
