Hi
have just collected two NEC FD1165-FQ, does anyone have any
infomation about such a drive ? Google doesnt seem to have any
usefull link on those.
Need to know if its a standart shugard bus and the pinout of the
power connector.

Hi, Sellam:
Tell us more about this large project, especially if this equipment
has to be in working condition or is just for display.
Although I'm annoyed by people who say, "Gee, you should have
asked me last week, I just threw out...", I'm afraid I did indeed
scrap a Z2D (or equivalent), a 103, a Rainbow, a Spinwriter and
most of a North Star.
I do still have a CS-2 (Equivalent to a Z2D) with a TopHat (dual 8"
floppy) and a BRZ-II fan system which fits underneath the CS-2,
a System 3 (late model, single 8" drive & HD), several
System 1's, and have access to several more System 3's, 100s,
300s and 400s as well as several boxes of cards, manuals,
software and sales literature. Also a C-5 Terminal and, I think,
most of a C-10. I've also got a few other miscellaneous terminals,
Falcos and an ADM-11; what other "periperhals" are you looking
for?
I also have two Vector mz's, but no software or docs and I'm
not sure I have all the cards; I loaded one with Cromemco
cards and an MFM HD because it is easier to work on and
quieter than the Cromemcos.
Finally, I have 1.9 Hyperions (Hyperia?), (one missing the front
cover), a user guide and various software diskettes but no other
manuals.
And of course I still have the various books & stuff that you and I
talked about way back when.
There are two problems however: some, if not all, of the Cromemco
stuff is promised to Dan Cohoe (if & when I get around to sorting
through it and getting as much as possible working), so you'd
have to talk to him as well as me, and I really have no interest
whatsoever in packing, crating and shipping this stuff from Toronto
to California.
So, if you're interested and have solutions to our problems, email
me at mhscc(a)canada.com or phone me at 416-532-4322. Hope
we can find a way to help you out at least a little bit.

Dear Joe,
Can you give me information about the manual?
Where are you? can give me your mail address?
Best Regards,

Hi,
I picked up a couple of blue three ring binders with Perkin Elmer logos
on them. Both have manuals in them. One is for PECESS Software Packet
for a UV/VIS/NIR Spectroscopy and has some printouts with BASIC
listings. The other has a manual for Command Descriptions Reference
Manual for CDS-3 Application program. Does anyone want them? I'll
trade for something I can use like HP manuals, Tektronix 4041 manuals
or ????
Joe.
I've decided that the PDP-11/24 I have is not getting enough attention
since I've acquired the 11/83. So, if anyone is interested, I've got
the following available for pick up near Blacksburg in Southwest
Virginia:
PDP-11/24
EIS
FPP
1 Megabyte of RAM
DZ11A
RL11
UDA50
Unibus Map
RA80 Disk Drive
RL02 Drives (two of them)
RL02 Disk Packs (nine of them)
RSTS/E 9.2 (with Y2K patch) is installed on the RA-80
The system is in two racks, one contains the PDP-11/24 and one contains
the RL02s. I will not break this system up, so whoever wants it has to
be willing to take the whole thing, including all the disk packs and the
spare grant cards I have for it.
You can see a picture at
http://cmcnabb.cc.vt.edu/~cmcnabb/projects/pdp11 . The HP Terminal is
NOT included, since I kinda need it for the HP-9000/832
If there are no takers, then I will keep the system (no E-bay for this
one)
Scrappers/Board Collectors need not reply.

Hi Bill
It is a complete SIM4-01 setup with the programmer card.
see:
http://www.vintage-computer.com/images/digibarn/digibarn4004.jpg
It isn't clear in the picture but under the newer MCS4 manuals
is one of the older ones with a complete descrition of the SIM4
in it.
You didn't put the programs in RAM, it still require one
to blow 1702's that you'd replace those on the SIM4 board
to test out your programs. You need to remember this
is a Harvard architecture type processor. The motherboard/box
has some dip connectors, LED lights and switches that can be used
for I/O to simulate your application with.
I still use it every now and then to blow 1702A for various
things.

Hi:
I am looking for the same information for the power supply (just the output
wiring diagram).
I have a source for a lot more of the supplies if you need any.
Thanks, Joe F.

On Friday I happened to get lucky and find a copy of a new VMS book that
I've been wanting to get, but hadn't bothered to order from Amazon. The
book is "OpenVMS with Apache, OSU, and WASD -- The Nonstop Webserver", by
Alan Winston. While it's decidedly on the expensive side at $45 I've been
finding it to be an excellent book and well worth the money. One thing I
found interesting is that a large portion of Alan's target audience seems to
be OpenVMS Hobbyists. If anyone has been thinking of picking the book, I
would highly recommend that you do.
Now I'm going back to reading it!

There is also someone with an IBM 3511 SCSI enclosure with an IBM 350 and
365. They look like one of my old office machines but the dual PPro makes
makes it interesting.
The problem is that I've almost run out of space. I'll have to start getting
rid of a few machines in order to fit any more in.
