It occurs to me that there are several PDP-8'ers

Yep.
I got involved with... Charley Lasner. As far as
reptutation went, he was
the guru of -8s. He lived in NYC at the time...
Queens, specifically. I visited him in 1994 and copied a stack of
RX50s for my DECmate II.
So, does anyone remember him or know how to reach him?
Remember him? Yes. I haven't spoken with him in years. We were
going to play with OMNIBUS SCSI cards, but it never came about.
There was something to do with multiple versions of the ROMs on
the cards he had, and how they controlled floppies was subtly
different.
Sorry I can't help you find him. I'd like to say "hello" to him
and see if he still wants to tweak those boards, or if it's worth
just designing an OMNIBUS SCSI board from scratch.
