We called it a telex machine.
I worked on these for about two years in my army days, in the seventies.
We would type on a kind of type writer, which produced the tape.
Then it went to the "secret office" next door to be encrypted and sent.
During an incident in Eastern Europe we were locked up in our office for 7
days:
two girls and about eight lads, doing shifts of 8 hours and sleeping on camp
beds.
Food was delivered through a hatch in the door.

Sue,
Wasn't that called a Data Processor? - mid to late 60s
Does anyone remember the telex machine that punched holes in narrow paper
(about 1.5mm) as you typed the message,
David
