You're taking about the carrier for the print pallets? Yeah, I don't know how easy it would be to fabricate a replacement. PDF page 388 is an example: https://ia800509.us.archive.org/15/items/bitsavers_teletypemod404540ComponentsServiceApr82_54361338/325-073_Dataspeed_40_4540_Components_Service_Apr82.pdf No matter, I seem to recall that quite a number of special ICs and modules were used in the electronics. I really don't know how common these are in the wild nowadays. Probably less common than the Model 40 CRT terminals. --Chuck
