I have a device like this, taken from IIRC an NCR
device ca. 1960.
It is definitely a keyboard and it contains a matrix of something like
(3x8+AD0-)24 by 24 switches, and it is coded, perhaps BCD. Underneath it
is all hand strung wires. I can dust it off and send photographs if
you're interested.
I'm primarily interested in DEC & IBM stuff, thanks... why don't you put the
photos on a website where everyone can see them?
1401 I've heard of. What's an 1800?
Same architecture as the 1130, but a much bigger box. Built like a
System/360, from SLT logic.
