I'm working on a radio with some folks from BBN.
I'll ask them.
Any idea what is was built on? i.e. I assume there was
a cross assembler
which ran somewhere.
I would assume that it was built on a Honeywell 316, since that was the
basis of the IMP. A former Honeywell employee tells me that that had its
own environment.
