This is a "Teletype" machine that is not a teletypewriter!Which is why you should not use "teletype" as a generic term for teletypewrters or teleprinters.Have fun,Duncan K2OEQ Sent from my Kleinschmidt TT-4/TG, the US Army's first portable digital communications device, 1950-1980

in Enfield CT. Hopefully someone local can pick it up.
It looks intact from the photo and from the tape you can see it's not
for baudot but maybe some other use. It does have a cord
likely for the punch and advancing the tape. It's definitely a Teletype
Corp unit from the tag. It's not the 14 reperf unit that I have been trying
for months to find, but could be a rare museum item, especially if for
Morse.
