Interesting! I used to own one of these (the single-hole variety) - it
never worked too well, but then I was no expert at it. Don't remember
where I got rid of it - probably at a hamfest for a song.
I took my extra code exam with a portable version of this machine, run
by the FCC examiner. It's a long story which I won't repeat, but it
involved a tape machine malfunction! Cranky beasts.

Oh wow - my Dad had one of those - does that go back a few years.
Donate it to W1AW museum - I don't know who the station engineer is
anymore
as I left there in the late '80s, but I'm sure they would really
appreciate the donation.

Hi to the group.
My silent key friend's XYL has a paper tape morse code device and we
would like to donate it to a museum. It is in a nice looking wood
box. It has one paper tape, a hand crank on the side of the box and
should be saved as an important piece of history. His XYL and I are
both 74 years old so it will just be a matter of time before this
ends up in a land fill if we don't find a home for it.
She sent me two pictures of it so if anyone is interested I can
E-Mail the pictures. She will donate the piece and I will pay
shipping if we can find a home for it.
