Subject: [personal] Venner Electronics Modules
Hi,
I've got here some electronic modules made by Venner Electronics LTD,
Kingston By-Pass, New Malden, Surrey. One is a Transistor Decade Unit type
TS.10/5 and the other just has Type TS 11/HF on it, where 11/HF is
scratched into the metal label.
Venner made high end counters, dvm's and the like, we used quite a lot of
them at N.G.T.E Pyestock.
Opening one reveals a number of Mullard OC44 Ge
transistors.
I believe rare now, used in the Elliott 803B computer and other in the
range.
If in the UK and no other use for them consider the The National Museum of
Computing at Bletchley Park - http://www.tnmoc.co.uk/index.htm they run an
Elliott 803B and need spare OC44/OC45's
What on earth are they for? I can imagine they're for some sort of digital
machine or even a whole computer, but I can't find any information about
them or the company.
Thanks,
Alexis.
Mike
