It looked like a good batch of boards and i was holding out on finding a
machine. Any good place to get a 11/780 aside from watching the local scrap
centers with my fingers crossed one will be there?

well there goes my plan of trying to keep it
under the radar.
Sorry, I didn't mean to upset your plan (and you); I just didn't know if
anyone was watching for VAX-11/780 parts, they come by so rarely.
If anyone is desperate for VAX-11/780 parts, let me know -- a friend of
mine recently came into a load of them. If it can help someone bring a
/780 back to life, he'd be up for working something out...
I'm going to start that with my 780 soon. I'll probably snag the eBay
parts if the price stays reasonable and I'll let you know how things
go.
BTW you mentioned you had had problems with your 730 main breaker too?
How exactly was it misbehaving? Did it sometimes refuse to power
machine even when it was in the ON position?
