Fwd: 50% DISCOUNT WEBSITE MANUAL & PARTS, ONE WEEK ONLY

by aek＠bitsavers.org

FYI -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: 50% DISCOUNT WEBSITE MANUAL & PARTS, ONE WEEK ONLY Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2017 06:53:02 -0700 From: Tucker Electronics Company <jtucker at tucker.com> To: aek at bitsavers.org 50% DISCOUNT WEBSITE MANUALS & PARTS, ONE WEEK ONLY Thanks for your purchases of manuals and parts last week and previously. We have slashed the selling price of most manuals on eBay by 50-75% in recent months. Our two websites www.etestmanuals.com <http://na02.mypinpointe.com/link.php?M=48182615&N=48220&L=22673&F=H> and www.etestparts.com <http://na02.mypinpointe.com/link.php?M=48182615&N=48220&L=22672&F=H> have many more listings than our eBay site ( teoutlet). Unfortunately, we have not been able to update pricing and shipping costs on these sites. These manuals and parts were purchased when we had a large repair and calibration lab. Many are one of a kind and subject to prior sale. We have over 43000 different listings on www.etestmanuals.com <http://na02.mypinpointe.com/link.php?M=48182615&N=48220&L=22673&F=H>. We have over 12,000 different listings on www.etestparts.com <http://na02.mypinpointe.com/link.php?M=48182615&N=48220&L=22672&F=H>. THE 50% DISCOUNT APPLIES TO ALL ITEMS LISTED ON THESE TWO SITES THAT ARE AVAILABLE STILL. The promotion will run from March 27th to April 1st. All items are subject to prior sale. We want to encourage you to buy especially the next two months. If you are most comfortable buying on eBay ( our site is teoutlet), please continue to do so. On US sales, we can make consolidated shipping quotes as needed. We are very motivated to sell although there are limits to what we can do on eBay. On our two websites listed above, we encourage you to make a list and contact us at jtucker at tucker.com <mailto:jtucker at tucker.com> regarding consolidated prices and shipping costs. Our websites can be used to look equipment up, but not to take advantage of the 50% discount prices this week. We can send you PayPal invoices for any purchases not done on eBay. In all cases you have the buyer protection of PayPal. We can also take Credit Cards. Our phone number is 2143488800. We do prefer email to jtucker at tucker.com <mailto:jtucker at tucker.com> as most questions about manuals require research and can?t be handled by a phone call. Please keep in mind that quantities are limited on the majority of listings and everything is subject to prior sale. SOME EQUIPMENT PROMOTIONS FOR THIS WEEK ONLY: 3 each Agilent-HP 6031A Power Supplies, 0-20V, 0-120A, 1000 watts with manual These have been TESTED and are on eBay at $750 regular price. $550 each this week only by direct purchase. 3 each Tektronix P5205 High Voltage Differential Probes with All Accessories.

STC 2920 tapedrive schematics

All the docs should be available on bitsavers by now, although I don't remember if it's under 'stc' or 'storagetek' or both.

It isn't spam, so it's clearly functional. Subject is 'Reparando um Vectrex', which hardly needs any additional translation. Body said 'New post on blog'. Blog looks good. Poster is Alexandre, old-timer on the list. All items ticked OK, all good.

MC68K's on DEUNA's

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

> From: Bill Gunshannon > I doubt Motorolla was in the business of custom making different size > chips, even for DEC. So, that triggered a question in my mind: why was DEC using the 68K on this board, anyway? They had plenty of in-house chips the could have used, e.g. the J11. The MC68000 had only a 16-bit bus, so it's not that dissimilar in capabilities. Why buy out? Did Motorola offer them a price they couldn't resist, or what? Noel

Wanted: AT&T 3B2 Ethernet Card ROM images

by lists＠loomcom.com

I'm trying to track down ROM images from AT&T 3B2 expansion cards. I've started with the EPORTS serial card, which I have. What I'd love to find is the ROM from the NI Ethernet card. Not all ROMs were socketed. Freqently they were soldered, so I know that getting these probably won't be easy. If I had an NI card of my own I'd desolder the ROMs, but alas, I do not. If you have these ROMs, are willing to image them, or -- and this is a real long shot -- if you're willing to let me borrow a card for a while, I'd greatly appreciate hearing from you.

booting os/8

by w2hx＠w2hx.com

Hi folks, I have a PDP-8/e that I've been working on. I have completed construction of AK6DN's RX01/02 emulator. I got to the step tonight where I was trying to boot an OS/8 disk image and nothing was happening. I realized that I do not have the bootstrap diode board in my 8/e so begin the bootstrap triggered by the "SW" switch. Does anyone have the program I can toggle in for the bootloader? What I found is somewhat confusing. Here is a discussion on this topic. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/alt.sys.pdp8/RX01$20boot|sort:re… It seems one fellow was attempting to edit/improve the bootloader of another fellow. I was wondering if anyone has distilled this into something simple. At the moment, I care only about booting from RX01-Disk0. Any pointers greatly appreciated. Thanks Eugene W2HX

MC68K's on DEUNA's

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

So all the DEUNA's I've seen have L10 (ceramic package, 10Mhz) 68K's in them. Has anyone tried using anything else, and did it work? I _assume_ an x12 would work, but until someone has acutally tried it... The Pxx's (plastic packaging) might not work - according to the datasheet, they are 2mm wider than the ceramics (why, I have no idea - it probably means they aren't interchangeable, which makes no sense at all to me).

GImix Ghost Video Board

by vintagecomputer＠bettercomputing.net

No.. mine has a 2513 character generator.. the one in the ad uses ram based character generation. ?Based on IC dates my board looks like mid to late 70s.. a fair bit earlier than that one.
