I've worked with many women in this business (indeed, the most talented programmer I've ever worked with is female)...the vast majority take stuff like this in the way it is intended (humorous and not disrespectful) and laugh about it, while a couple get offended. Those who take offense, well, us guys probably shouldn't say things like that to (or about) them...though I believe they need to relax a bit and find something different to get up-in-arms about. Now, if it interferes with the career progress or professional respect of the person in question, that's a WHOLE different story...that is wholly unacceptable and must not be tolerated.

A few years back, a tree fell into the back of my garage. The main hole in the roof was directly over and IBM workstation and its 19" monitor. Many gallons of water funneled down through that hole and into the monitor. In addition to the water, there was the the gravel off the roof shingles as well as small pieces of tree branches, leaves, and bark that got into the monitor. Since the priority was the garage, the machine and monitor got moved to the barn where they sat for almost a year. That meant they went through a fall, winter and spring before I dealt with them again. Since the insurance covered the workstation, I decided to just not mess with it. With full knowledge of what had happened, a friend of mine said he would like to have it. I gave it to him and after a little clean up he gave it the 'magic smoke' test. AFAIK, he is still using the machine. OTOH, I used to work for a Federal agency and they had a supply depot & repair facility. I toured it once and watched them dunk a 100 watt UHF tube type transmitter into a tank of cleaning solution. They then put it into a huge oven for a period of time. I have no idea for how long nor at what temperature, but the units went back out into the field and worked fine. Mike

CDROMs and RT-11

by jhfinepw4z＠compsys.to

I don't know if anyone is interested, but I suspect that I have found a way to set-up a dual file structure CD for RT-11. It would initially be started under Windows 98, although that is not required. I have yet to actually test my concept in practice since I don't think I have the required hardware on my Windows 98 system and I don't have a working CDROM on my real PDP-11. However, in principle I don't see why it will not work based on the information I have been able to gather during the last couple of months since I acquired a CD-RW CDROM drive. If you are interested, please contact me and I will write a full report. Sincerely yours, Jerome Fine -- If you attempted to send a reply and the original e-mail address has been discontinued due a high volume of junk e-mail, then the semi-permanent e-mail address can be obtained by replacing the four characters preceding the 'at' with the four digits of the current year.

You mention that it will remove corrosion, does that include rust? I use CLR for: * cleaning the coffeepot (rinse with vinegar afterward) * decalcifying the showerhead * removing rust from nuts, bolts, etc. hardware. * removing rust stains from the clothes washer * making copper pennies be shiny again As others mention, after you clean rust off metal, it will begin to rust almost immediately. I usually use a lubricant made by BG Industries called 'HK' afterward, to prevent corrossion, but sometimes settle for WD-40. If you leave ferrous metals in too long, some ionization process starts to leave a dark film on the parts. It looks ugly, but so far, those parts don't further rust (but the dark film looks like corrosion itself though I don't think it is). hth, -dq -Douglas Hurst Quebbeman (DougQ at ixnayamspayIgLou.com) [Call me "Doug"] Surgically excise the pig-latin from my e-mail address in order to reply "The large print giveth, and the small print taketh away." -Tom Waits

DELQA/DEQNA Cab Kits question

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

I should know this, but can't remember, are the Cab Kits for the DEQNA and DELQA interchangable? I was up in storage today and I seem to have more DEQNA Cab Kits than DEQNA's and the only DEQNA I could find was in a system, and I've got two DELQA's and no DELQA Cab Kits. On a possitive note, the Palm Pilot "Field Guide" I asked about last weekend came in very handy as I couldn't remember what boards I had (and of course my inventory list was at home). I ended up bringing home a lot more than I planned on as I found a couple of cool boards :^) Zane -- | Zane H.

The worst part is the caddies for this > drive are rare > as hens teeth! Well, I haven't tried taking it apart either, but it may be worth mentioning specifically that when you put the clear "sleeve" back into the drive, it almost certainly releases some kind of catch which allows it to lock onto the "cd-holding-insert-thing" and pull the whole thing back out. I would try to find that catch, which is most likely off to the one side or the other (just a guess, since that's probably where I'd put it...), or directly above or below the disk. (like built into the spindle that turns the CD somehow...) If you can get to it, and release it, you ought to be able to pull the disc out. Otherwise, yes, the caddies are kind of difficult to find, but I have two (one for each drive), so you can probably get them.

Need Burroughs Tape Spec's

UPS delivered my Burroughs tape unit model BU4180 yesterday but it was destroyed. They must have dropped it from a high place as this thing weighs in at almost 80 pounds. Things inside are pretty bad but I would like to try and get it looking nice again, since the boards inside are damaged I do not think I can get it to work again. Does anyone on the list have repair manual for this model? I would like to see how he belts go around the pulleys inside the case. Thanks

Does anyone know what this is or want it? It looks somewhat collectable... I'm asking $25 for it, that's how much it'll cost me for the switches and LEDs if I build my own frontpanel instead of re-use this one's. Here's a description, pictures to appear soon on http://purdueriots.com/imgs/ called bie*.jpg >From the date on the back, it looks to have been purchased in '78 or '79. It's a 6800 based system that I picked up at Purdue Salvage for a couple $$. It has 3 IO cards each with a 6821 on it, a MPU card with a 6800, a ROM card, a front-panel card and some other card with (i believe) RAM of some sort on it (chips are Intel P5101L's 22pin DIPs). Front panel has 24 toggle switches w/LEDs (persumably for the IO), a 6digit 7seg display labeled TIME, 7seg labeled FAULT and a pair of 7seg's labeled STEP. On the right, a 2x6 matrix of pushbuttons labelled 0-9 and a pair labeled "S". Next to that, a 2x6 matrix of PBs with LEDs next to them, labeled: STEP BRANCH STEP NO. PROG. START INST. TIME ABORT MASK OUTPUT ABORT ON/OFF INPUT MASK ABORT STEP NO.

Electric ovens work best for this since gas ovens produce tons of moisture. Trouble is, many ovens can't go low enough (~200F or so). I've had good results from sitting stuff atop floor-mounted heater vents in the winter. This obviously works best when the equipment in question has air vents. Over the past ten years or so, I have gotten a *large* quantity of equipment (literally hundreds of computers) that has been out in the rain, sometimes for months. Some of it I use daily even now. Computer stuff (except for floppy and hard drives) tends to deal with it fine, even monitors. Analog stuff like test equipment tends not to fare so well, nor does mechanical stuff like scanners (though my main scanner was indeed out in the rain for about a week; after a little TLC it performs flawlessly). The water doesn't seem to do any harm at all, even with long-term exposure...it's the crap that the water can carry into the equipment, and sometimes corrosion later on. -Dave -- Dave McGuire "Hush and eat your vegetables, young lady!"

I use Alconox, a trisodium phosphate based cleaner that's very effective. I have a big pile of acid brushes...those little pencil-sized brushes that go for about a dime a dozen.

Classic monochrome phosphors?

by dbp＠phosphor-technology.com

Hi, The phosphor compositions are not secret, only the way they are made! The old monochrome green P39 is made of Zinc Silicate activated with Manganese and a trace of Arsenic to extend the persistence,(Zn2SiO4:Mn:As) which is the main difference between that and P1 (Zn2SiO4:Mn). The old monochrome orange "LA" phosphor is made of Cadmium Chlorophosphate activated with Manganese (Cd5(PO4)3.Cl:Mn). There are not always equivalents between the two codes. We stopped making LA phosphor for the far eastern market in the mid 90's because of environmental issues and the rise of colour monitors. I hope this helps David Pendrill Head of Research and Development. Phosphor Technology

NEC V20 and Rainbow (was: NEC V-20 was: Native CP/M)

But you don't get to that choice unless you modify the boot PROM (I think not EPROM) to account for the V20's faster (fewer cycles) execution of a timing loop. The modification is documented, I think it's in Rainbow News and I can dig it out in a couple weeks if anyone is interested. For purposes of the original thread, modifying a Rainbow is needless, because it already includes a Z-80 (4 MHz) in addition to the 8088 (4.mumble MHz), and will run Dec CP/M-80/86. It probably makes a pretty good platform for anyone wishing to cross-develop from MS-DOS (up to 3.10b) to CP/M. For hot-rodding purposes, the V-20 mod is recommended by Rainbow News as a good way to get more speed out of the Rainbow. - Mark

but it won't help with the current distribution problem. The PSU who's output after the diode drop is the highest voltage will end up sourcing all the current. Not what you really want. -tony Not quite, the forward volt drop of the diodes will even out the current between the individual units. Even shottky barrier diodes have a vf of >0.4v at the curents that would be involved.

Assorted goodies & TK Question

by pat＠cart-server.purdueriots.com

Has anyone ever gotten a "TK50-Z" in a 'TK SCSI' encosure to work with any 'normal' scsi controller on a PC or something? I picked one up for a few $$ today, and just realized the enclosure has a 220V power supply... Also, how do I get the disk out of an RRD40 without a computer attached? If anyone's interested in this stuff, reply off-list: DEC RRD40. I don't have anything but the drive and whatever is stuck in the drive with the CD in it. In a 110V external enclosure. DEC TK50-Z. In a 220V external enclosure (IEC power connection) DEC RZ55. In a 220V external enclosure (same one as TK50-Z) DEC DEBET. 110V/220V switchable ethernet 'bridge' I think. PowerMac 6100/66 PowerMac 7100/66 PowerMac 7100/66 'chipped' to 80MHz - i don't know the specs off the top of my head for these, will have to look. mostly 250M-500M hard drive and 8M-24M of RAM Quadra 660av Quadra 610 Mac IIci Mac SE Sun SparcStation 1 - 40M RAM, 240M HDD, CG3 video Sun Sparc IPC - 40M RAM (IIRC, will check), NO HDD, builtin video 2xNCD 19r XTerm, upgraded memory.

Kinda OT?: Looking for rackmount screw sets....

by DAW＠yalepress3.unipress.yale.edu

Well, I just acquired a 5' x 3' x 2' IBM AS400 drive cabinet. F--n heavy! Now, to mount equipment in it, I need to find some more of those clip-on T-nut kinda things, which clip on around the hole in the rails, so you then use the supplies screws to mount your equipment. Some older DEC racks used the same thing. And, as you can guess, the guys at the local Home Depot just gave me funny looks. Anybody know where I can get a dozen or two of these screw mount sets? For a reasonable price? And what are they called? --- David A Woyciesjes --- C & IS Support Specialist --- Yale University Press --- mailto:david.woyciesjes@yale.edu --- (203) 432-0953 --- ICQ # - 905818 Mac OS X 10.1.2 - Darwin Kernel Version 5.2: Fri Dec 7 21:39:35 PST 2001 Running since 01/22/2002 without a crash

simh V2.9

by dittman＠dittman.net

I just downloaded and built simh V2.9. I was able to boot the RA90 disk image I created for Charon-VAX. No timeout, full source, with Ethernet support coming. There's supposed to be a couple of bugs, but I haven't found them yet. -- Eric Dittman dittman(a)dittman.net Check out the DEC Enthusiasts Club at http://www.dittman.net/

HP 13215A (Power supply) Info Needed

by ngallaher＠deepthought.org

I recently acquired an HP 13215A PS (power supply for a 7900A Disk Drive) from the local university (they junked an entire system and sold it for scrap piecewise). I can see that one of the terminal strips is labled with the output voltages (I assume) but other than that, I have no idea what this unit provides or requires. I would like to use this PS to power a FC array I have, but I don't know how to energize the PS, nor do I know the current ratings. Thanks, Nathan Gallaher

It seems to be the same machine reported as having a 2.5V REGFAIL about four years ago ... so it's not been powered off for a *really* log time. OTOH, the PSU blocks do need to be plugged back in correctly otherwise something *will* go phut very loudly. I'll go read the printset as soon as I dig it out, it may have details of what goes where. >NO!. SMPSUs do not like being run in parallel (unless designed to be used >like that).

OS/2 running under VMWare, or other emulator for Windoze

Guys, Anyone have any luck running OS/2 under an emulator on Windows 2000? Just wondering. I tried installing OS/2 Warp 3 on my copy of VMWare 3, and it (VMWare) got mad and won't allow it to install. The web site says VMWare will not (and has no intention of) support OS/2. I was hoping to find a way to run trusty OS/2 on my laptop when I wasn't busy with work......

TTL computing

by ajp166＠bellatlantic.net

RE: 2114s Over the years i'd seen A higher than normal {2102 as comparison} failure rate. So I had the opportunity to do some checking on why. NOTE: the 2114 never had as good a failure rate as say 2102 or other 1k designs and the next generation of 16k static parts were substantially different with better failure rates. 2114s common failures: Delayed stress damage due to ESD. Common failures are address inputs. Missing bit, usually a failed output due to either ESD or excessive IO loading. bond failures (works when hot or cold) most of those are plastic cases and likely due to cleaners causing internal plastics to expand and lift a bond {usually during board production}. Other likely causes, heat! Ceramic devices seems and generally were more reliable. The CMOS versions 6114 (nec D444) were more relaible, though ESD induced stress failures were a major factor. In the early 80s it was not uncommon to visit a site and NOT see proper ESD protocal used when handeling MOS or CMOS devices. In most cases getting the production people using would often see a substantial drop in early failures{infant mortality}.
