Hi,
Looking for a 501-1443 or similar framebuffer
to fit a Sun 3/80. This uses the P4 bus. Its
not the same as a 3/60 cg4 framebuffer
unfortunately - I think the main difference is
the position of the video sockets, but there
may be others...
Good price paid, or can trade for other items
(Sun or DEC).
Cheers
Ian.

It is now official... Having now got my RL01 drive in my PDP-11/34 to
seek, and read a sector full of zeros, I would love to know if there are
any PDP 11 users in Canberra, who would be able to load up a bootable
RT11 image onto a RL01 disk pack. Heck, anybody within a couple of
hundred km would also be cool..
Having known data on a disk pack would be very handy.
Thanks,
Doug

It might be easier to go to a metal shop, autobody shop or
Heating/Ventilating/Air Conditioning shop. Any shop like that can make
panels to your exact size in a few minutes (aluminum works best). You
can have a body shop paint them (wait until they are spraying your color
anyways or it gets expensive) or you can use spray paint cans.
Hi list,
I have the following for sale:
1) 4 * QBUS board:
DEC "A/D FOR 1103 5012094E-P2"
DEC "4 CHANNEL D/A A6001 5012107 DP4"
DEC "PROG REAL TIME CLOCK M7952 5012108B"
DEC "M9060 5017109" load board
2) 2 boards marked
"4K MEMORY BOARD FOR 118
NICOLET INSTRUMENT CORP
000-7488-04 10/14/75"
Each one contains 40 ICs marked "TMS 4060JL BP7901" and then 15 chips'
worth of 74-series logic. One of these boards seems to have been used
for spares or something, as it's missing all its resistors, capacitors
and one of the TTL ICs. The connector on these is an 86-way 0.1" edge
connector.
3) The original box and manual, plus original Sharp (still boxed)
Laplink cable, for a Sharp PC-3000. There is a PC-3000 *in* the box,
and you can have that too, but it's got a smashed screen. Probably
still works other than that, no promises though. There's also the
(likely unobtainium these days) adaptor from the PC-3000's mini-serial
port to an actual DE9 connector.
Please make an offer by private mail if you want any of this. I'll
ship anywhere, but you pay the shipping. Items are located in West
Yorkshire, UK.
Ed.
Hi Austin,
That would be great. Thanks. The blanking
panels and other 19" rack bits seem quite
pricey, especially if you need a lot of them
which you typically do when building up a rack.
All the best
Ian.

Hi,
Looking for various parts to complete a 19" rack
of various vintage servers :) In particular I'd
like to get some blanking plates (any size) in
black if possible, cable tidies, and empty 1U/2U
or larger server boxes.
Anything considered - I'm in the UK
Many thanks
Ian.

I received a Victor 9000 with monitor and lots of software, but no keyboard.
If someone has one to spare, I'd appreciate it!
Now, what can I do with all of these extra software copies?
Steve.

Hi folks,
I am just beginning to use Dave Gesswein's DumpRest from
ftp://ftp.pdp8online.com/software/dumprest/.
I successfully restored TD8-E DECtapes with it. That enabled me to
install OS/8 on RK05 etc.
I also (roughly) integrated the dumprest utilities into OS/8 (I can
start them and they reboot OS/8 back to the monitor). And they now use a
separate high speed rs232 port to connect to my PC (as my kermit does).
When I use restrk05, I always get a checksum error. I just have read one
RK05 disk - three times. What I get is always the same checksum error
printout with the same checksum. And the generated files are identical
as well. I can also successfully run them in SIMH.
So what's wrong? Does anybody has a clue? Is that a known problem?
Best wishes,
Philipp :-)
Hey,
I have an ancient copy of the HPIB protocol specifications for 1/2 tape drives. I was going to send it to bitsavers for archival and re-distribution but, due to the number of errors and unreadability of the doc, I decided to go ahead and make the obvious editorial changes. I have placed a HTML version of the first draft at:
http://www.steerex.com/hpib/7980_protocol
At this time, there are a couple of sub-sections that are still missing. I'll add them in the coming days. I'll also be adding meaningful content, programming examples, tutorials, and HPIB pointers in the near future.
Hope someone finds this stuff useful.
See ya,
Steve Robertson
