When the museum was in its formative stages in the 1980s, a wide range of Teletypes were acquired, and this exhibit was created by [[~~Bennie Bendickson~~]]. The machines, ranging from the 1920s to the 1980s surround a central wall, and their data lines appear at a [[CMS:No. 9 Telegraph Testboard|No. 9 Testboard]] on the far wall. From that board, they can be patched to one of several loops to communicate with each other, or receive an automated feed of news and weather.

=== Repeaters ===

The three frames to the right of the ~~9-A~~ testboard contain solid state repeater equipment from 1940s to 1970s including 144A1s, 144B2s, Regens, and 90C loop repeaters. There is also a polar relay tester. The repeater equipment is from the same era as the ~~2B Electronic Hub testboard~~ despite being installed near the 9-A.

The three frames to the right of the No. testboard contain solid state repeater equipment from 1940s to 1970s including 144A1s, 144B2s, Regens, and 90C loop repeaters. There is also a polar relay tester. The repeater equipment is from the same era as the No. 2 serviceboard despite being installed near the No. 9.
