Devin here, I had asked for advice on how to move a PDP 11 as well as how
to lock the heads on the RL Drives. It was quite a move. Ive never driven
in a large city before, dealing with traffic was more trouble than it was
to move and load up the equipment. Anyhow, i put a few images of what I got
up on a postimage gallery, which can be viewed here :

It was at least working for a hour or so....
I was trying to enter a short program at the front panel and there was a
clicking sound followed by a burning smell. I cut the power, the front
panel is unresponsive now, so I'm going to need to look over the power
supply for starters. He did include a second empty PDP 11/34 chassis,
perhaps the power supply in that one is in better condition.
