Well, things came to a point I have NO 360K drive I can attest it is
working properly and aligned.
I have some AAD alignement diskettes, but I need something to exercise
the drive. Google seems not to know what a "floppy drive exerciser" is. Do
people have some tips of schematics, programs, or will I have to roll my
own? :)
Thanks!

Hi,
I?m looking for a program (or preferably an online conversion site, as I use Macintosh) that can convert a long stream of Hex, to 3 digit Octal.
I have found one site that works ok (http://www.kjetil-hartveit.com/blog/10/hex-binary-decimal-octal-and-ascii-c… <http://www.kjetil-hartveit.com/blog/10/hex-binary-decimal-octal-and-ascii-c…>), but the octal it outputs is not always 3 digits long. Unfortunately I then need to manually add the missing ?0?s, which can be a huge pain for long listings, and open to human error.
For example the above site does?.
Entering this:
0E 09 11 1B 01 CD 05 00
Outputs this:
16 11 21 33 1 315 5 0
But I want this:
016 011 021 033 001 315 005 000
Does anyone know of a good site (or some good software)?
Much thanks
Phil

Wow. Live and learn.
Or maybe actually DMA indeed _doesn't_ work with the CPU stopped, and what
happened was that the DMA request was waiting in the card, and as soon as the
processor started, it did the DMA? But how did the first instruction fetch
produce a valid instruction? Unless the first DMA cycle (to 01000) happened
before the processor fetched the first instruction?
I'll have to try throwing a 'scope on a QBUS and manually (via ODT) starting
a DMA transfer, with the CPU halted... see what (if anything) happens.

I have a few 5.25 floppies, about 4, that I would really like to have
imaged. I *think* that they are OS-9 (Microware not Apple) format. I
don't have a way to do it my self. Is there anyone out there who could
help out?

My Sorcerer came with the BASIC cartridge supplied as standard as did the
one a colleague got. I also recall that this was the standard offering.

I was watching that also on ebay. Almost went for it. Almost. :) I am glad
it went to a good home.

I'm feeling a need for one of the Heathkit ETA-3400 memory & I/O expansion
units for my ET-3400.. or at least a set of documentation such as could be
used to build one of my own.
Anybody have an ETA-3400 they'd be willing to part with..? A set of docs in
PDF?
As it sits, all I've got here is a copy of the ET-3400 'Modification
Manual' which details the changes which must be made to the ET so it will
connect to the ETA module.
Thanks for any assistance..
Sorry for the munged URL and thanks to Vince for providing the full address. If you missed it first time, here it is again:

I take the list in digest form to minimize the potential for ADD distractions; it also means that there is a lot of latency in my response time.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my original query. This link is to the location list in DEC's 1993 internal directory - obviously more than just manufacturing - https://www.dropbox.com/s/szitkbpfwk...ctory.pdf?dl=0 . They had a _lot_ of locations!

Hello everybody,
related to the recent posts on the GE TermiNet 300, I uploaded my scanned TermiNet documents to the bitsavers ftp-server maintained by Al. Hoewever, while going through the docs, I realized that these are for the later line printer models 310, 320, 330, 340, and not for model 300, apologies for potentially created hopes and confusions. But in any way, adding these to the documents list cannot harm :)
Kind regards,
Pierre
