A reminder to any PDP/Plessey collectors among us that I will have
several pieces of Plessey 'PDP-clone' items at the monthly TRW
Amateur Radio Swap Meet this coming Sat the 31st. I have a Plessey
MicroII complete except for software... it boots into ODT '*', also
a twin 8" drive for it.. a Kennedy 5xxx drive with see-thru cover..
needs an interface, and various other items of interest to the
classic mini collector. I am trying to thin my collection and keep
to 'true-blue' DEC stuff. Bad pun. Sorry....
ANYWAY... e-mail for info/directions/chat/whatever: delivery is
available for the right bribe.
I am looking for:
An interface/formatter to connect a Kennedy 9300 9trk to an 11/34a
A/D and/or D/A cards for the MINC-11
70's vintage D/A boxes for the PDP-11
If you are local or visiting, TRW is a great place to score micros
and the occasional mini. Last time, an IBM Sys/34 complete went for
$20.. software and terminals and docs. The guy 'inherited' it and
just wanted it off the back of his little truck. Had not another
indivdual (who had been an IBM field tech) bought it... it would be
here. In what's left of the garage space. This is just an example
of what turns up there.
TRW plant in El Segundo, 7:30am to 11:30am e-mail me for space
numbers and more.
Cheers to all
John
