Tapes to Carry All Messages The receiving and transmitting terminals of radio telegraph cir- cuits will be equipped with auto- matic typing reperforators which will receive and send messages in the form of printed and perforated tapes suitable for immediate re- transmission to branch offices, or to overseas stations via international radio circuits. At intermediate tape relay offices, the received tapes will be removed from typing reperforators and in- serted into transmitter-distributors keyed to the onward relay radio circuit.
