Most recent haul

Saturday evening I went to a friend's business who was subleasing part of his shop to a gentleman doing 'surplus' here in Southern California. The gentleman regretfully passed away suddenly around New Years, leaving a lot of Stuff behind, which we are liquidating for the man's estate and widow. So: here are some DEC/classiccmp related items, a few of which might be of some interest to list-members. I bought these items as a lot, and will indicate which are available to the Community. (*) Two Siemens System 300 desktop card readers, still set up for 230vac/50htz. * Some kind of DEC test box, in a large blue alum. case, marked only model 93-07402, containing an RX02 disk and a printset; the disk is marked DGSBA.A11 (S/X REC.) and the printsets are marked SX TRANSLATOR.* Three nice leather shipping cases containing RL01/2 disks: in one, three disks RLO1K DX-T502K-MC CZZLDK0 DLDP V2 RL1 DIAG Pkg 1 Pkg 2 Pkg 3 in the second, 2 disks RL02K BC-EH95I-MC CZZLOTTO DLDP V2 R2 DIAG Scratch In the third, 2 disks RL02K BC-FI18S-DE 000MUB9526 VAX 8600/8650 CNSL W/DIAG (Both disks marked the same) * A PMK05 Unibus Exerciser w/doc and two paper tapes marked: MAINDEC-11-DZKUA-C-PB 6/3/76 nr Unibus Systems Exerciser Diag.
