I dumped and decoded the font rom. The code is similar

More research today. I'm pretty sure it was a Telex message preparation

datacomm service.
Still no clue who might have made it.

from looking at the text in the eproms, it was some remote forms-based dialup
display terminal

Subject: can anyone identify this terminal keyboard and pcb?

No manufacturer in the proms, just "C-8080 KEYBOARD/DISPLAY TERMINAL" in the
setup code.
The modem appears to be Bell 202 1200 half-duplex.

Well the frogs never were usable as a async ASCII terminal..
for some reason I think they were intended for IBM... The white later

used with a cluster terminal controller if memory is correct...

I think it may be a Courier. I bought the pcb, which has "C8080" on the sn label
so I'm guessing it's Courier. Quite unusual with build-in modem. Will be dumping
