Summary

[edit]
Description

These impressive looking dumb terminals were introduced into the Royal Observer Corps during the 1980s to streamline their Nuclear Civil Defence role. Post WW 3 these terminals would have been used to relay messages from control to control rather like electronic teletype. I have actually had to use one of these and thought they were the most amazing peice of computer technology at the time.
