Hi Mike,
I have a pdp11/45 processor handbook I can spare. I don't know enough about
the -11 line to know how different the 11/45 was from the 11/40. E-mail me
privately if it's any use to you.
Mark.

I just got back from a three day hamfest. Boy, did I get a LOAD of
stuff!!!! My truck was dragging all the way home! It'll be days unloading
and sorting this stuff.
One of the interesting things that I got I **think** may be part of an A
series HP 1000 but I can't find any of the part numbers in my HP catalogs.
The serial number on the power supply indicates that it was made in 1980.
Here's a description of it.
A large 19” rack mount box, marked “Hewlett Packard 12979B I/O EXTENDER”
It’s 19” rack mount box, 23” deep and 9” tall. It has a flat front cover
held on by two 1/4 turn fasteners. It has nine slots in the back and nine
slots in the front. The back slots are numbered 0 through 7 then 10. the
front slots are numbered 11 through 17 then 20 and then DC PC. These cards
are currently in it.
slot PN Marking
(3) PN 02100-60060 marked TERM
(11) and (12) PN 12979-60029 marked I/O BUFFER
(13) PN 12566-60032 marked MICROCIRCUIT
(14) and (15) PN 59310-60101 marked BUS I/O
(16), (17) and (20) PN 12566-80024 marked GRD TRUE IN OUT
(DC PC) PN 12898-60001 marked EXT. D.C.P.C.
All the cards have a card edge connector on the outside edge except for the
TERM and EXT DC PC cards. I also got a LARGE box of cables that I *think*
are for this device. They all have connectors that plug onto the card edges.

The 13242 p/n in strangely familiar to me, so I'm thinking it probably
went to one of the HP terminals I used to have to deal with. That it's
a Amphenol "Centronics-style" connector makes me think it's for a
262X-family terminal, but I'd expect the Amphenol connector to be the
50-pin flavor for that.
Also I looked at a 2645 at the office today (still in service) and its
cable has a 02640-xxxxx part number.

Hi all:
Does anyone have a PDP11/40 Processor Handbook they can part with or rent
out? (I like that touch). Or is there a semi-legitimate copy online
anywhere???
Probably any good pdp11/40 assembly handbook would do, I'm just not familiar
with them.
Thanks,

If anyone wonders what to fed their Rainbow, besides Concurrent CPM/86 at
the unofficial CPM site, there is the DEC fpt server in Uppsala. They have
a few different systems for the rainbow:
CCPM, CPM, MSDOS, P-System (and possibly Fortran System).
Check out:
ftp://ftp.update.uu.se/pub/rainbow/
You'll need a copy of teledisk and lha archiver. I believe they are also
available on the same server.
Have fun,
Mike
(They also have system stuff for pdp11's and 8's)
'Cause if I'd a posted it then, there wouldn't have been one. Actually I've
passed up a couple in the last few months, against my better judgement...
Now, I need one...
Thanks

I really need a copy of the pdp11 processor handbook...
If you have a spare, let me know what you need to get it here. I'm at Zip

Thanks,

W O W !!!!!!!!
See Don's earlier post for a description of the 4052. I have a 4052 and I
lack the ROM pack. I would be prepared to pay something quite substantial
for this if you are willing to part with it. Could you possibly ascertain
shipping costs to UK, and let me know whether payment in US banknotes is
acceptable? Please?

Amsoft sounds very Amstrad, I must admit, but I feel I must put in that one
system nobody seems to have mentioned that used 3 inch floppies was the
Tatung Einstein - a Taiwanese (I think) Z80 based home computer that tried
to jump on the BBC Micro bandwagon in the UK.
I need an M220 module for my PDP-8/L. Does anybody have one for sale or
know where I could find one?
Thanks,
Tom
