Hi,
Now that everything's moved and more or less positioned in my new shop, I'm trying
to get some things running again. It's a longer term project but I figured I'd
start asking around now.
My 2065 (DECSystem-20) is missing some key pieces that I'd like to see if someone in
the community has and is willing to sell or let me borrow so that I can try to replicate
them (the prints that I have are missing critical bits of information). Here's what
I'm looking for:
KW20 "master oscillator". This is required when using MF20 memories. I've
found a block diagram but that's all I've found out about it. Any help (either in
prints or locating one) would be appreciated.
BC20C S-Bus cables. I figure if I borrow one or at least get a high res photo (both
sides) of the M9006 paddle I can replicate them since I'll need several.
I'm already planning on replacing the CPU supplies with modern switchers. That'll
do two things:
Eliminate the need for 3-phase power
Reduce the CPU power consumption down to ~2200W (from the 6000W with the linear
supplies).
Of course, I still need to do a massbus emulator for the disks but getting the CPU and
other bits running first is the priority.
Thanks.
