This is a Teletype model 15; it was built sometime between 1930 and 1963
My machine was used on a radio station in Baltimore up to 1982; the paper that came attached to it had a piece of news that I was able to date to February 1982.
It was all locked up. After disassembling the major parts and degreasing everything, replacing the motor ball bearings, greasing, oiling and adjusting according to the original service manuals, it worked just fine.
I’ve made a current loop power supply for the 160V, 60 mA required for the machine solenoid coil; this loop is controlled by the Arduino as a serial output, running at 45.5 bps, Baudot 5 bit code.
The firmware periodically checks for news reports at Associated Press and Reuters RSS websites, converts the text from XML ASCII to Baudot and prints it.
The code also checks for new email messages at a particular POP email server and prints it as well.
There is also a WEB server that can be accessed by the computers/phones at the same network. It provides for instant printing of texts.
