Hi list,
In Skegness, Lincs there is a company called Ramco who deal with
selling off military surplus via sealed-bid auctions.
I've bought from them before. The only thing to bear in mind is that
every item has a reserve, so it's not the case that if you bid ?1 and
no-one else bids, you win.
Now, on the latest tender list (
http://www.ramco.co.uk/tender-main.php ) the following appears:
328 PDP-11 DEC DATA SYSTEM
Unfortunately only some of the lots have a photo, and this one doesn't.
Everything they sell is in "as-is" condition, but a friend of mine
buys from them all the time and almost 100% of what he gets does work.
All the electrical/electronic gear I've ever bought worked.
Just a heads-up in case anyone wants to go check this out and/or buy it.
Ed.
