Last year I picked up some documentation on the PDP16 family. Does anyone
have any hardware, docs, software or knowledge on it?
I have not had much time to look at it since I got it, and want to see how
it compares to my PDP14 items.

Hi Alan,
Nice to see you on the list. If memory serves me correctly, you a talk on (very) high speed data acquisition at
DECUS a few decades ago.
I might have been in the audience for that talk...

Cool. Is that mod documented (on-line, that is... not just on some
35-year-old paper)? I have an RKV11D that I've used under RT-11 with
16-bit memory... love to put it on a larger machine.
Good luck on posting your stuff. I'm far away so I'm not likely to be
interested in anything huge and heavy, but I'll take a peek.
