After a couple of evenings spent tracking down a core memory problem, I
now have myPDP-8/L running (haven't yettested everything but it's been
looking good so far.)
There are four bulbs out on the front panel which I have some spares
for, but while going through the replacement I noticed that only one
("CA") of the six "Major States"bulbs is actually installed
(therearen't
even sockets present for the other 5, doesn't look like they were ever
present). Is this typicalfor the 8/L?
I may install sockets for the other 5, because I'm pretty sure that more
lights = better computer...
