The manual isn't very clear on it, specifying repeatedly that it can punch 5 to 8 level tape. But the one I got only has 6 holes as in the picture. In the back of the manual the parts list specifies different "guide and die blocks." I haven't hooked mine up yet -- I need a 5 amp, 27 V supply. But it appears it has everything except the die block to work with 8 level. I doubt the local electronic supply house will have that die block, so I might modify that one if possible. Will

Hi Will, Is the punch you received capable of punching 8-level tape? While the PDF on Surplus Sales of Nebraska's site says the unit can punch 5- to 8-level tape, one of the photos on the site, https://www.surplussales.com/Images/Equipment/Military/eqp-p135-20-35_2_lg.jpg, makes it look like it can only punch up to 6-level tape. -- Ron -Original Message- From: cctech On Behalf Of Will Cooke via cctech Sent: Saturday, April 30, 2022 2:21 PM To: cctech Subject: Comtec model P135-20/35 Paper Tape Punch A month or two ago, someone mentioned this paper tape punch available from Surplus Sales of Nebraska. https://www.surplussales.com//Equipment/mil.html I think someone had a similar model and was looking for information. I ordered one on Tuesday or Wednesday and got it today. It came with the complete operation and maintenance manual as opposed to the three or so scanned pages they have on the website. I will be scanning that manual and making it available as soon as possible. In the mean time, if anyone has questions that the manual may have answers to, let me know. Will
