To get manuals and or traning aids would be quite interesting, since
I've two of these beasts an some media with software (RT11, Fortran,
IMSLIB, ...) which I would like to backup.
Up to now I wasn't able to get one of this drives running.

I did tech support onthese drives for many years, working out of OK
City.In fact, I'm still in touch with the original designer - had nunch
with him about a month ago.It's a minor point, but one surface on the
cartridge and one on the fixed pack is used for a servo reference. So
it has two servo surfaces, the only drive I know with that piece of
wierdness.Don't know if I still have a manual in the garage or not.
Definately do still have the training aides,since I had to teach it to
several OEM's support people. (There were more than 1000 configurations
of the Phoenix sold to various OEMs at the time. I was on the road 50%
of my time for a couple of years.)Can you forward this to the cctalk
list? I can read it but not post messages. I'm pretty certain it is a
problem with my ISP and not the list.Thanks,Billy
