Ah, thanks for that pointer; I'll see if it shows the same board versions as
my 'early' hardcopy set.

Say what? The "11/05S schematic" from Bitsavers shows the RC clock; look on
page 61, bottom left corner, there's an RC circuit (and a couple of flops)
producing an output "DPH TTY CLK (I) H", which is fed into the baud rate
divider in the upper left corner.
(Ooooh, what an ugly circuit! You have to tweak the trim pot to change from
the 110/220/440/880/1760 speed set to the 150/300/600/1200/2400! Ugly!!)
