If someone types a message on an antique telegraph machine, does someone else have to be on the other end as the person is typing it out? Or were there versions of the machine where it would either record the transmission for looped play or type out the transmission on paper? Let me know if this doesn't make sense. Thanks!

I was doing some additional looking around online... What about paper tape (like what was used in ticker-tape parades) used by teletypewriters? Is that similar to a telegraph machine? Would that require 2 ppl to be there at the same time? Thanks.

Operator needed at each end

If someone is on one end typing there has to be someone at the other end listening to the person at the other end typing or they won't hear anything. If there is no one at the end typing then the person at the other end will wait and wait and hear nothing until someone starts typing something. If the person starts typing and the other person at the other end goes off to the toilet or has a cup of tea then no one will hear what was typed and it will be a waste of typing. Hopefully, they will both be at both ends when they are typing and listening so it will work.

First you key on a telegraph machine, not type.

the early telegraph machines, only clicked at the terminal, no 'recorded loop' no 'paper type', they clicked.

there was a series of long and short keys (dots and dashes) calles so by the telegrapher that hand wrote the message as it was recieved from the sender.

so your Q.) yes someone that understood the series of long and short clicks needed to be there.

What makes something referred to as something. somebody got here up with a acceptance for human beings and now we at the same time call ourselves human beings (so a procedures as English is in touch). How are we diverse from different issues? we glance diverse, we've diverse genes, we've diverse applications, and a few might say we gained the breath of existence from God. What makes us human interior the jap way of thinking? A human that conforms to the societal norms. Even the bible says you're a beast in case you provide your self as much as sin.

Yes, an operator is needed at each end, to transmit and to decode.
