I used to build the Accu-Keyers to sell (even sold a CMOS version), and 
also built three or four of the Accu-Memories.  If my feeble old mind 
remembers correctly, you could pause for any length of time while you 
were programming it to make a word space, and then continue.  Maybe 
that's what Brett is thinking of?
Loved to watch that digital display while it was playing back.  :-)
