I'm making progress on the PDP-8/E I got this last
week. The powersupply
checks out once the Front Panel is plugged in, and thanks to all the spare
lightbulbs I've got all the burnt out bulbs replaced. Unfortunatly I'm now
down to two spares which my -8/m could probably use, the -8/e had nearly
half it's bulbs out. This brings up the question, how hard is it to get
replacement bulbs?
I thought all 8/M systems had LED front panels. At least every one
I've seen has.
Not sure where to find replacements. Newark Electronics has a nice
(but expensive) selection of lamps. Also you might want to try Gilway
Technical Lamp...if you can't find them online, let me know and I'll
dig up a catalog.
