micro pdp11/83 power supply

by mail＠waldemar-brodkorb.de

Hi, I started to revive an old Micro PDP11/83 I have for over 12 years now. It is fully assembled and last time I tried to start the machine it some kind of started. My biggest issue at the moment is the power supply. After the machine is running for a while, let's say 10 minutes and then when I poweroff, the power supply starts producing a lot of dense smoke. The smell is very penetrant. What can I do with the power supply? Do I need to exchange it completely or just parts of it? At the moment I removed it from the case like described here: http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/dec/pdp11/microPDP11/EK-MIC11-TM-002_MicroPDP1… Thanks in advance for any starting hints, Waldemar

MS11 M8110/M8120 controller card differences

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

So I notice that M8120 controller card for the MS11 seems to share its etch with the earlier M8110 variant (the M8120 says "M8110" in the etch :-); so the differences must be component/configuration/ECO. Does anyone happen to know what the differences between the two are? Thanks! Noel

Interest Check: Belden Thicknet 10base5 Ethernet Coax

by systems.glitch＠gmail.com

All, Per the recent discussion on thicknet/early Ethernet, I figured I'd see if there's any interest in cut-to-length Belden thicknet/10base5 Ethernet cable. I've got a local surplus guy who's got at least one 1100 foot roll. It's the real Ethernet spec stuff, sez so on the cable, and it has the bands to locate your vampire taps. If there's enough interest, I'll buy the spool off of him and cut it to length for whoever's interested in buying some. I can crimp N terminations on as well. Thanks, Jonathan

Personal Communications

by cctalk＠gtaylor.tnetconsulting.net

I ran across the following messages in comp.os.os2.marketplace (referenced from comp.os.os2.programmer.misc) and remembered that there were a few people talking about IBM's Personal Communications Manger here, particularly in the context of the P/390. So I figured that I'd cross post the info. The asking price (free + S&H) seems reasonable.) -- Grant. . . . unix || die
