I love electro-mechanical systems like this! Sure, they can be a pain for upkeep, but there's something to be said for actually making things move vs sending electronics around a piece of silicon. One day, I'd live to be able to spend a day in that CO!
Good overview Prof. Phil! Ever heard of TonePulse Converters, by American Telecommunications Corp? I managed to latch-on to a couple several years ago, but I can't seem to find much on them in-terms of documentation. They're small blue square boxes, with an aluminum clamp on the top, for mounting to a horizontal rail system. There's 12 dip switches on the rear, & some type of 6-position connector on the front. Just curious to your thoughts on them.
Thanks for the video. Always find your stuff very educational and I love learning about these older switching systems.
