If you have details on it, contact me and I'll send you my friend's contact info and see if he can get you something if your own efforts fail. I've known him now for 40 years and find him to be one of the "good guys". I spent a lot of time in his office when the fax machine would fire 2 or 3 times a minute and have a pile of 100 or 200 pages of wants or haves backed up he's have to look at. Wading thru that and making money is why they are so weird in pricing and dealing. He would always treat me fair though when I had something as he knew my needs weren't for a deal that could ultimately yield a huge payback, and I'd be restoring some old equipment. Some don't care just want a buck. You need to realize most people who will buy schlock parts will most likely be repairing a board for some alphabet agency or entity who probably is having to pay $1000 or $2000 / board to get back in business, with ancient unobtaininum parts on board. There is a lot of this going on that isn't out there unless you are in the business, or unless you see the $5000 odd board for the old DEC box and wonder why the hell they are so expensive. I've had some people with really high prices respond in the last year to reasonable offers for some rare stuff when I tell them what I plan to do with it. Thanks jim
