I have been given a PDP 11/04 (at least that is what
the front panel says
and it does have an M7263 CPU board) to look after for a few years while
the owner is away working and am quite keen to try getting it operational.
I have no idea when it was last run so will be going through the full
capacitor reforming process/etc.
I am not a DEC expert (they are not really common down here in New Zealand)
so am relying on a lot of the info on the net. Everything I have read
suggests that 11/04's are in a BA11-L chassis with an H777 power supply (
http://www.brouhaha.com/~eric/retrocomputing/dec/pdp11/chassis.html). This
unit is in a BA11-K chassis with an H765 supply. Is this normal or is it
possible that the machine has been repackaged at some point in it's life?
The PDP-11/04 (and its faster, backplane-compatible brother, the
11/34) were available in both BA11-L and BA11-K chassis.
