CuriousMarc
CuriousMarc inspects a newly arrived Teletype Model 19, an early military unit built around a Model 15 keyboard and printer, after an initial rough cleaning. It is the first part of a restoration series and touches on 5-bit Baudot code.
HN commenters point to this restoration series as a thorough explanation of how teletypes work at every level.
