Who is the closest person to Philadelphia with a working pdp 11 and rk05
drive, the LSSM in Pittsburgh perhaps? I can take to Dave tonseenif he is
willing to read in my 30 or so rk05 disks next time I visit there....or if
anyone with more experience than I would like to pop over to assist me for
an afternoon to get it running, please contact me via my web site. I'd be
willing to trade a pack or two for the help. I have working rk05s on my
pdp8e that we can borrow if need be so I am pretty sure soon enough I'll
have success. Part of my delay has been the fact that on my 11s I run
rl02s dont need rk05s.

Anyone has old DECUS distributions?
For all intents and purposes, no
DECUS threw them out.
About the only thing that survives are the titles that
were included on some of the SIG tapes.
Working on gathering what parts still survive in individual
collections would be a good thing, but I'm not holding my
breath for it to happen.
I will check the labels of all the RL01, RL02, RK05 and RK07 packs I have
to see if there happens to be any DECUS material on them.
However I found one Bill Seiler in Santa Cruz that is very likely to be very Bill Seiler that wrote the original SPACE
WAR for PDP-11. Since he
at
least had the source in 2006 it might be so that
he still has it?
