I can loan you one I made for my 743.  I need it back though.

Do you want me to bring it to just bring it to VCF?  Or do you want it earlier to test with?  Email me directly.  

Btw.  Why is it off topic.  It's about VCF and a 745 is most likely over 35 years old and a great alternative to a noisy teleteype.  The only thing that sucks is the cassette ASR versions were very limited and expensive so you still needed a paper tape setup to match a teletype.  

Cheers,
Corey
