To Tom HAMMOND. You seem the only one concerned or knowledgeable about rates and speeds.
During my ten years ttravelling Africa I saw lots of Tape TTY and lots of manual oeration from the central. WOW. The most interesting part was the insistance thay they (the country in question) were operatinmg at the international (TELEX) standard. 9 times out of ten they were communicating with other countries which assumes tying to a standard. They werent. Almost every convertor I sold needed its own header to appear transparent. If I sold them the wrong thing nothing would work. Never happened! The TELEX system works all over the world becasue of work arounds. EGOs prevent change To try and explain was beyond my skills and really undesired I manually used to lock a 32 the keyboard at distributor speed and I could even do column work therein What is TELEX these days? Morse was ever better to my taste 73 Earl W7TK _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
