Keyboard send receive. A model 33 teletype without paper tape.
ASR was the model with paper tape, Automatic send receive.
DEC used teletype's that generated mark parity. From the manuals keyboards were
available to generate other parity. A reasonable amount of old code for
PDP-8's assumed mark parity. Later code ignores the upper bit.
I thought the high bit setting would be turned off if you used set tti 7b or
8b but never verified.
Which obviously won't help if the software running inside simh then
expects MARK parity...
