I managed to pick up a COMDYNA GP-6 analog computer a couple days ago out
at University Salvage. I initially bought it for its nixie tubes, not
knowing what it was, and then was a bit dissatisfied with the fact that
they were not in great shape.
After taking a few seconds to look at it and try to determine what is was
with all the banana jacks on the front, I thought "Hmm, it adds and
multiplies... google says 'Analog computer'... Wahooo!!"
Does anyone know very much about these? I managed to find this webpage
fairly quickly using google:
http://www.comdyna.com/gp6intro.htm
What kind of applications did they have, etc?
Any info you guys have would be great.
