Thank you very much for putting up the manual.
As I said My memory of light use more than 30 years ago was wrong.
In general the Vcc voltage specs alone should eliminate swapping TTL & RTL,
in this specific case the RTL device (MC789) is driven with a +5v
power-supply which going by the manual is too high.
I stand by my statement that for the three projects mentioned TTL should
work. After checking the specs of the original parts (MC789) I would
recomend using TTL since Vcc is driven with +5v and I didn't see anything
else in the project plans that would eliminate TTL for the inverters.

3.6v? Are you joking or do you believe that?
The MC7xx series specs are now up at

Feel free to interpret their specifications any way that you like.
