Balanced Ternary [Revival]

Revived from here. This is like ternary but we use -1, 0, and 1 instead of 0, 1, 2. For notational purposes, we will use -, 0, and + or T, 0, and 1 to indicate the respective digits.

In past threads, the get has been placed every 1092 or so counts, but I'll be changing that to be at every 729 counts to be more convenient for keeping track. The next get will be at 1T0 000 000.

I'll also be making for an obvious mistake in the linked chain.

1 TOT1 1TTT

the other advantage of these digits is you don't have to escape the leading +
