DECmate II disk image tooling?

by david4602＠gmail.com

I have some disks that look like they're from a DECmate II computer, standard RX50K drives. The disk images all look like they're a mix of 12-bit (OS/78 or OS/278?) and 8-bit all on the same media. I can't convince PUTR to make sense of the images, so I'm wondering if there is anything else out there that is likely to be able to examine the disk contents? I'm really looking for PUTR-like functionality to list and copy files. Maybe SIMH could be configured to be a DECmate II and be fed the disks? I have a couple of disk images available in case anyone wants to try them out - they're purported to be "DECmate II CP/M 2.2 version 2.0" and "System Disk ver. 2.0 8/24/87": https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1PD0TlUPiT7MIPEX6abEn33e7s3kSXp_H?us… - David

DEC H500 Digital Computer Lab

by ccth6600＠gmail.com

As there is no real cctalk traffic other than test messages I thought I post something a bit more interesting. Here is a short video of my fully restored DEC H500 Computer Lab with an 8-bit counter implementation including reset: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=57xU3Xqnqx4 Enjoy Tom Hunter P.S. Is there some problem with the mailing list? The few "non-test" messages I get are often out of context.

Digitronics P135-20 Paper Tape Punch

by pbirkel＠gmail.com

I have the mechanism for a Digitronics P135-20 Paper Tape Punch. It turns out that Surplus Sales currently has one of these for sale; see item "(EQP) P135-20/35". It is accompanied by a three-page snippet of a much longer manual for this punch. See: https://www.surplussales.com/equipment/pdf/eqp-p135-20-35.pdf That's the only documentation that I've been able to find :-{. I'd very much like to find/acquire the remainder of this manual, or other relevant documentation. Can anyone help me? Thank you, paul

RT-11 Kermit to/from a raw device?

by jacob.ritorto＠gmail.com

Is there a way to do this? Or perhaps a driver in RT-11 that I could point to an entire drive? If not, maybe I could write one with some community guidance? Would be a splendid way to write real media, or in my case, read the hundreds of 8" floppies I have sitting on the shelf here for archive. thx jake
