I figured all that from the manual. Except the Wes Clark part of course.
What do you think is then ? Re-purposed parts from a ROSS console or
prototype stuff ? Looks like the guts from a console stuck in a cheap
19" rack. If it is tied to Wes it's important then I'd guess. Hopefully
someone saves it.
Just for the record, that isn't a "cheap" 19" rack. I have one of these
that apart from the color is nearly identical that I got from someone who
used to build wirewrapped boards. IIRC mine was made by either BUD or
Hammond, but I can't remember which right now.
