Hi folks,
I've been chatting to someone who has a TRS80 Model 4 that's giving him a
horizontal sync issue, is there anyone around the Fremont area who could
give him a hand with it?
Cheers

The 2 sheds will be sorted next Saturday morning, early, in Katy, TX. If you
want the address, pls email me.
If you are in the Austin, TX area, there might be room in a carpool.
Same for the Minneapolis and Michigan areas.
If you are coming, please wear sturdy boots, gloves, bring bottled water,
and dress in layers, as it might be either 35F or 75F that day. Bring your
own food. Bring cash, no checks or cc. Not sure about restroom facilities.

This hurts my heart:
HP Gold vintage 1970's high yeld recovery plated ic chips leads w palladium caps

Who cares what something could do, there might be pennies worth of gold to be had!

I just got off the phone with Jesse at Cypress. He said he did not post the
gold and tantalum items on ebay. It is someone else, trying to cast a bad
name on him.
I explained to him that the list would really like to work with him, and
that old HP stuff is wanted. He explained that each item is put into a
system, fully tested, and has warranty and follow up support if needed, so
prices are not low. I explained to him that many list members can do board
level repairs.
I suggested a "garage sale" type scenario, where he offers as-is equip, to
save the costs of paying a tech to test everything. He is open to that idea.
He has pallets of old terminals and keyboards that he does not work on
anymore, so no warranty. I told him that if he would test the monitor to
make sure it turns on, and include a complete matching keyboard, members
would prob pay about $85 plus shipping for a set. He does have a 150, and a
lot of 1970s and 80s terminals and keyboards. He said he will gather them
together and do a basic test and offer some out, on an as-is basis.
Please understand that he is a business (for the past 30 years), and he does
have to cover costs of storage, technicians, etc. No, he won't sell stuff
for $5. It costs him more than that to pay someone to find the stuff and
pack it. Please bear his needs in mind too.

In response to a request a couple of years back from Cindy, I've been slowly
working on a page to help scrappers identify PDP-11's, and give them an idea
what to look for. I have it _mostly_ done:
http://ana-3.lcs.mit.edu/~jnc/tech/pdp11/PDP-11_Models.html
Comments/error-checking etc welcome. Also, I still need images of a few
things: -11/60 and -11/94 front consoles, the original LSI-11 card, the
KDJ11-E, and most of the DEC QBUS boxes. (Yeah, I could try looking for free
images, I've been busy!)
Any help gratefully received!
Noel
