No, both pieces were made by Teletype. I found plate on the tape reader
that said "McDonald Douglas", a contract number, "reader, tape", and
made
by Teletype along with some other info. The big piece has Teletype in large
letters across the front of it.

they were an "also ran" supplier of TTY machines, but only a fraction of
what Ma Bell/Teletype made and sold.

Last week I drug home a Teletype machine just
seconds before it was
going to be tossed in a dumpster but I can't identify it. It LOOKS like a
model 28 KSR Compact as seen at
<http://www.vauxelectronics.com/gil/tty/teletype_corp.htm> but the only id
tag that I can find on it says TT-187A/UG. Inside is another tag that says
MX-1114A/UG Keyboard. Can anyone id it from those numbers? Also found a
second piece that looks the M28 Transmitter-Distributer shownon the same
page. The label in it says CY-871/UG TT-69A/UG. I need help id'ing this
one
too. The property on it says that it came from McDonald Douglas and that
it's a "reader, tape".
