My new classic computer room is quickly filling up
and I need to clear out some space. In my quest to
find a working Dec VT52, I have acquired several dead
or semi-dead ones that I don't want to spend the time
to troubleshoot right now. I also have a VT61 that
powers up to a flashing "block style" cursor. I have
not attempted to connect it to the PDP-11/34 because
I do not have my 11/34 set up for a 20mA connection.
If anyone would like a VT52 or the VT61, let me know.
I have a minimal amount of money in these ($30 to
$50 each) and would be willing to sell them for that
price. I've been watching eBay for 6 months and have
only seen one of these types of terminals on there.
For those of you who aren't familiar with them, they
were commonly used on DEC systems (PDP-8 and PDP-11)
back in the mid-1970s and later.
I have two or three VT52s and the VT61 that I'm wanting
to get rid of. The VT61 seems to be quite uncommon.
I can't find much about it on Google. It had more
features than the VT52 and I think did "full screen"
processing, but I'm not sure.
