Teletype

Good news: it looks in pretty good shape, and I've located an appropriate connector to attach it to the mains. It also has the optional satellite communications port.

Bad news: it needs a ribbon! Will the local office supplies outlets suffice? "Yeah, I'm looking for a ribbon for a 1980s nuclear-hardened military teleprinter intended for aerial use. Do you have one?"
