The ug numbers are military numbers.
fair radio in lima ohio used to sell this "type" (pun)
of surplus gear.
they were used for landline and radio teletype (rtty).
nadcom (or is it nadcomm?) (i cannot remember thier
web addy) may have more info - they are a teletype
museum and do have some mil stuff in thier collection.

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".
Joe
