I have an opportunity to get a pdp 11/34M + expansion
unit which I understand is a militarized 11/34 sold by
Norden and used in connection with the Nike missle
system. Is this worth the effort to pay for
cross-country shipping? Has anyone seen one of these
before -- my understanding is that it doesn't look
much like an off-the-shelf 11/34.
I think the Nike systems were all out of US service by the time
PDP-11/34Ms came out. Come to think of it, I think most Nike systems were
all analog anyway (M38?).
Anyway, I once had a control box for an 11/34M I gave away on the list
many years ago. Long gone.
