I want a all
TUBE modem. :)
Ben.
They are out there in the form of RTTY FSK devices from the 50's or
earlier.
We have a couple at (the) radio museum, I have to keep others from throwing
them out.
I have so many old tube modems that I have started scrapping them.
Nobody wants them. Even the Greenkeys guys have their fill. My oldest
is a 1941 FuG E3, used (probably) to encode Lorenz-cipher traffic for
the German military. I will not be scrapping that - I am always
looking for info on it, but my hopes are low.
I really hate to part this stuff out, but if nobody wants the things,
I figure whatever I can get will be turned into money that can be used
to save other things. Scrap a tube modem, save a Cyber - hey, that
justification works for me lately.
