Hi,
I recently bought a core rope memory unit from a Wagner WAC40, mainly because it?s very
aesthetically pleasing and looks good on display: https://i.redd.it/h9sb550uhnm61.jpg
Very interesting looking. I can't quite make out what is going on in that rectangular
area where all the wires terminate, labeled 0-15 and A-R. Are there diodes there?
Anything on the other side of that board?
The large cores with all the wires are remisniscent of core rope ROM. If so, I wonder if
it's AGC (Lincoln Labs) style, EL-X1 style, or a scheme different from either of those
two.
