Hi Sean,

Thanks for your kindness. Actually, i have not touch the Telex since 2 weeks.I'm actually on my foreign family for Christmas. I return to my house the 3 January. Maybe a little time near, the 28 too. But not sure. I'm thinking about it, i think i must maybe clean each contact on all the unit, and clean the plug. For the Zoom conference, it will be a good solution, and i'm ok for that!

I wish you a Merry Christmas!

Hi Theo,

Not a problem.

I have tracked down someone in France that has a manual for the machine, though he is not keen to copy it for me. He will however scan some odd pages, which is very helpful.

I will ask him to scan the electrical schematic, and any mechanical layout drawings - this will help.

Enjoy your holiday

Hi Everyone,

To begin, i would like to apologize for my silence during 5 month. I was really busy with the restauration of my house. During this time, i have take the decision to sell the Sagem. A person who have work with teletype in the past says to me that Sagem, was not, for him, a good brand. Very "cheapskate" about documentations, very expensive for maintenance, and dificulty to found spare parts.

Luckily, i have sell it without lot any money.

BUT, the story is not finish...! I was in holiday, in the south of France, when i found on a French Forum, a person who want to found a person interested to retrieve a Teletype ARS-33. Freely... So! On the road, i have take it! It is an US brand, so, i have think that this machine will be more simple to restaure, and more simple to found spare parts.

So, i have clean and it look like this. Unfortunatly, many "little parts" are missing.

Maybe is more simple for the next readers that i open a new post with the first movie of the machine, and try to make working this little monster!

Have a great day and Thank again for your patience and kindness.

Théo
