Hello everyone, I'm bringing back to life a "LT33" (aka a DEC modified
ASR-33 teletype) and out of the gate I've got an issue.
When I switch on, into "local" mode, I get continuous "nul" typing.
The
mechanism is doing the typing dance and its trying to type NUL. Where to
start? I've got the prints and am going to check out the keyboard area for
now, perhaps it has a clue.
I'm guessing it is either stuck in 'here is' mode, the keyboard is sending
infinite nuls, or something else :-)
