I've got a typing unit that has donated parts to my ASR33 and none from the
code bar area. If you have the Teletype manual with the exploded drawings
tell me the page and part number and I'll pull them off my typing unit here
and mail em to ya'

(Barring the Teletype manual, a _really_ good description could do in a pinch)
