What I need to do is find a cheap source of suitable switches - I have a pair of board sets (2 CPU, 2 I/O) and most of the guts to populate them at home already (some of the parts are surplus from a failed Commodore dealer, making it _doubly_ classic ;-) Between this front panel stuff, and a couple of modern Elf projects (Elf2K and Micro/Elf), I am going to be hitting local hamfests hard for appropriate toggle switches. I have a wad of C&K paddle switches, but they aren't right for either of the Elf designs (I _could_ use them on a custom -8 or -11 FP, but the particular C&K switches I have are might narrow, narrower than the ones used on the FP6120, so they will look funny on a 19"-wide FP). If I had a source of genuine DEC PDP-8/L toggles, I do have a dead -8/L FP board (that came to me with smashed lights and missing plastic toggles)... -ethan
