That is too cool!
let me know if you find another... I can see a display with it and some of
the NRI coursework. We have some ancient NRI stuff going back to the 20's
and 30's too.... ( pre computer!)

I was given a National Radio Institute 832 trainer about 15 years ago.
Needs some work now.
Jim Davis.
It looks like this:

except that there is a incandecent 7 segment octal display installed
in the
center of the console, "the middle of the display panel" and a rotary
switch for CPU clock select in the lower right..
Jim Davis. I'll post some pictures.
You have motivated me to write an emulator for this beast. But I think
I would like to
add an extended memory option that will allow the implementation of
some simple language.
Jim Davis.
Maybe use the 2 high memory registers as a page register? 14 byte code
pages? Ouch!
