Thanks, Dave.
Was the group mark on the Model 2 typewriter keyboard? I don't recall
it from the CADET. It was associated with the 1311 disk option anyway.
How does one print a flagged numeric blank? (the "dump numeric"
instruction prints it)?
Thanks,
Chuck

Sorry about the missing photos.
Here's the keyboard:

I've been adding a few more blog posts, and put up the first one on what
(to me) makes TeleVideo actually interesting - their MmmOST client/server
operating system. I hope to get more up soon, but I have a (somewhat
lengthy) introduction based on what I've been able to learn about MmmOST:
Dave,
I'd love to see the keyboard and printed output; unfortunately, the
listserv strips out anything but test. Got a link?

Chuck,
True, the 1620 Model 1 Model B typewriter (1st gen). The 1620 Model 2
used a Selectric (2nd gen). We're using the 3rd generation IBM electric
typewriter (Wheelwriter) with the 1620 Jr. (3rd gen 1620?). [I know
it's a stretch.]
The issue is that for Jr. we needed a reliable,

I would like to emulate a TTY, using a daisywheel typewriter.
Well, there are Qume and Diablo. Diablo was bought by Xerox, so some of
them carry that label.
Most of the stand-alone versions had serial (RS-232) ASCII interface.
I've given a couple of the Diablo KSRs (that's what the Hitypes
I remember in '79 a KSR Diablo was the dream KSR printing terminal
and cost like 3 grand? Oh how we used to dream of having one of
these back then!
We do have one in the museum's collection... although have not attempted
to power up to use.

But NO, I want something less complex, mechanical wise.
That's why I want to investigate on daisywheel typewriters.
