Thanks both, yes I have spoken to Mitch a few times in the past and he
does seem like a nice / genuine guy. I will keep Keyways in mind. The
main annoyance for me is paying import tax but perhaps it won't be too
bad.
I think I do have a DELQA card but it is in a VAX 4000/300 and riveted
to a quad width frame.

Not in the UK, but Mitch Miller at Keyways Inc
(keyways.com) has tested/working cards at reasonable prices. I had the same issue on a
recent MicroVAX II upgrade, I replaced a incompatible DEQNA with a DELQA. I?ve bought
near a dozen cards from him, honest dealer and experienced with DEC stuff.
He's near me (about 90 minutes West). I used to run into him at
computer shows/hamvention in Dayton. He is definitely experienced and
trustworthy. He has some stratospheric prices on some items, but
those are typically the prices and items for businesses with immediate
need and someone to stand behind the product. I haven't purchased
from him recently (since the Dayton Computer Shows ended) but I've
heard from others that he can be accommodating to hobbyists where
possible.
