Got a good beat, easy to dance to. I gave it about an 85.

I used to operate one of those for Blue Star Line in the early 80's. It was quite a challenge to prepare a message. The first email!

The ougoing tape was used to be ripped off and rolled up in a 8 shape around the thumb and the little finger of one hand...it was the first thing you had to learn when working with TTY!.

Makes me want to learn Morse code...

@CrystalHunter1989 No Morse code here... This one runs the 1963 version of ASCII. Earlier models used a 5-bit code derived from Baudot. The biggest difference is the use of variable length symbols in Morse (either American Morse or International Morse) versus fixed-length MARK and SPACE transitions... Thanks for commenting, though!

You forgot to turn your parity checking on.

@neuralwarp Actually, It's set to "mark" parity!

@Paleoferrosaurus Ooh, that's a new one on me. How does "mark parity" work?

@neuralwarp Parity bit is always set -- if the bit is clear, you've got a problem... Not particularly useful in detecting "real" errors, but it let the system wonks claim that they "supported" parity checking!
