That was one of the 'problems in the Teletype' that I was thinking of. I
suspsect the easiest kludge for this these days is to fiddle with the
clock at the computer interface end, and run the whole thing at 91.667 baud

Hi
One could buy a new pulley and add some additional capacitance
to the motors capacitor and it might work well at 50Hz. I don't
think I'd run it too long without the capacitor increase. They
run the motor hot at 60Hz. It'd be even hotter at 50.

Maybe.
Does the Model 33 work correctly when switched to 'local'? If not,
then you certainly have problems in the Teletype. If it does work in
'local' mode, then you might still have problems in the Teletype, but
problems with the interface are also possible.
Hi
It is also possible that he has the wrong speed gears/motor.
A 60Hz motor will run in local with 50Hz connected but the
Baud rate to the outside will be wrong.
