Hi friends,
I've been building up a nice little PDP-11/23+ with cabinets, RL02's etc. To
really round things off, I'm looking for a open reel-to-reel style 9-track tape drive
to add to the system (don't ask why, punishment must be somewhere in my nature). Not
interested in the autoloading/drawer type drives.
There are some fujitsu drives on ebay at the moment, but shipping from CA to NY is both
costly and risky.
Does anyone have a (preferably working) 9-track drive that can be used with a PDP-11 (like
a pertec interface) for sale? Willing to drive anywhere from Philly to Boston for one.
Hopefully one in good shape.
Thanks
