I've just added to yesterday's list of vintage computer items that need
to find a good home.
Details, part numbers, and descriptions can be found here:

Thank you to several classiccmp members who corrected my earlier post.
Some of the parts I have listed are associated with PDP 11/23s, not
11/34s.

I have the following items that I want to get rid of. All are quantity one, except the Poqets. They are free for shipping cost from Chicago (ZIP 60659). I prefer to ship in the US, but will consider shipping internationally. Contact me directly at r_a_feldman at hotmail.com if you are interested in any of the items.

Irwin Accutrak A250EP-05 external parallel port tape drive
HP Travan T1000e external parallel port tape drive
Microsolutions Backpack 800TD Model 143010 external parallel
port tape drive
Archive 11250Q internal tape drive
Mitsumi CD-ROM Drive 16-bit PC interface cardDauphin keyboard
Compaq keyboard 2680KB (from a large 386 semi-portable)
Zenith Number pad ZA-3034-NP
Compaq LTE Lite 25 laptop w/power brick. Backlight bad, SRAM
battery bad. Never had a hard drive.
Toshiba external 3.5? floppy ZA1115
Dual internal PCMCIA card reader w/EISA PC adapter card (for
Win95 and earlier)
2 broken Poqet PQ-161 portables. One has a US-made
motherboard and might be a ?prototype?. Has NASA sticker on it. Both have
broken screens, dinged cases and a few missing keys. One shows some reaction
when turned on.
I have a number of laboratory instruments that are from the 1990 time
frame. They produce digital data that is the digitized signal from a
detector, the data can be from 512 to 65K samples long. The ADC used in
these instruments is a 16bit 100ksample/sec design. The ADC is in a 3
by 4 inch metal box with a row of pins on each long edge.
I think some of them are failing because I get the full 16 bit
resolution from one machine, but not the others. This was determined by
taking the digital samples and sorting the values and computing the
increments between the adjacent values. In some cases the output looked
like 14 bit resolution and in one case 6 bit resolution.
Does anyone have any experience with this ADC technology?
Who was the manufacturer? (There is no id on the outside)
What is inside the box? Is it a hybrid circuit?

Is this Manuals Plus? They said at the start of the year that they were going
to close, and I bought a whole bunch of stuff, but then things seemed to go
quiet.

I spent some time today and made a video of my MP 3000 system booting up
to z/OS. The video is here: http://youtu.be/WnJmeQR0GQU.
Even though the video is about 9-1/2 minutes long, it takes longer than
that to boot. I edited out some of the more boring bits. ;-)

I still have a bunch of vintage computer parts I'd like to find homes
for.
If you are interested either in components for a DEC VAX or in a PDP
11/34 embedded system complete with card cage, please visit my website
for details and contact information.

I will be posting more items when these have been sold.

Well, Chuck, thanks a bunch, this is very useful and quite difficult code to
write from scratch. How does one compile for DOS by the way (I have to admit
I am too young to have ever tried), and get a copy of MSC 8.00C. Is the DOS
compiler buried in some part of Visual Studio? I have some old versions
dating back from Windows 95 time, when it was called Visual Studio 97...

and I am looking for west coast hp -3000's! Mike!
Due to freight az or cal... for a 3000/37 or micro gear
but would pay the big freight if it was a old series II or II or cx
or precx or series 1
I spent most of my time on series 2 and 3 machines and although I do not
have one
currently I DO have the additional plug in front panel that shows ALL
registers
The CEs would use it in dire times.... actually one interface card is
for CX and one card
for hooking into a series II or Series III.. I am going to bring up the
37 to use
Did not know you had 3000 background also we will have to talk more!

I worked on HP 3000 systems in the late '80s, and would like to find
one for my collection. A series 42 would be nice, but a series 37 or
micro XE would do. Any leads? I'm already aware of the one on Epay in
Florida that's been sitting at $1,725 for the past year.
I'm in central PA.

Old Technology http://q7.neurotica.com/Oldtech/
While pulling parts for another list member my workers found another 8-E.
I thought I had 2 in the area, but who knows.
Anyway, if you are going to Chicago (VCF) I'm almost 3 hours south of
there, but I have several list members who plan on stopping by before or
after and might be willing to deliver or get it closer for the right price.
I had already planned on selling one, so now I actually have 2.
Both are 8-E boxes, H724(I think) power supply, a single omnibus backplane,
a switch panel, silkscreen, one has white bezel.
They do not have :keys, cover (or lid), slides.
I can configure the boards to anything within reason, but I suggest you go
with the mos board or kit available on the list. Core is getting expensive.
Please contact me off list with questions.
Thanks, Paul
