A ROBOT was like 110 Baud ASCII....you had to sit there for eight seconds for a full frame on orange long persistance CRT and upper part of picture faded away in four seconds as picture was developed on screen and slowly disappeared.Two weeks ago, an elderly Churchlady asked me what my mom did knowing she worked for AT&T. My mom wrote up network orders for special applications.....like PICTUREPHONE service which was first displayed to the public in the 1963/64 Worlds Fair. A decade later I designed and built RTTY network setups for HF SSB communications used by United Nations and other govermental entities. Now I FIX TRAINZZS!!! Boy I'd love to have a MacKay Marine 'MacKEY.' I paid ten bucks for a Vibroplex Standard bug over three decades ago at a flea market. You should see the 'asking price' today of a new 'Morse lever.' |
