It seems reasonable, cause along with them and the forty something pdp8

50 pdp11 floppies. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with pdp11s
but this could be a starting point.
Also got a few dozend handbooks (most of them for various pdp11s). So
enough to read in days to come.
Just started archiving the pdp8 floppies, will dig my way through and
see if I also can read the
pdp11 and/or the Racal-Redac floppies.
Thanks for the hint

Part of my last haul of pdp8/e equipment (more
about this will follow
when pictures are online)
are 20 to 30 8" floppies labeled "Racal-Redac Monarch System Disks",
etc.
A quick google showed nothing relevant. Any info about this would be
appreciated.
Thanks
Gerold
Dont know about Monarch, but Racal Redac had one of the early PCB CAD
systems
though I thought they ran on PDP11's
