Hey, I've got a DCA controller here in front of me. It's a full-length
8-bit ISA/MCA flippy card, with 1 BNC & 1 RJ-11 (4P4C) ports on it. One
sticker says `*LA 0006E1*' and one says `003581 REV.A' A little googling
indicates this might be some sort of 3270 controller, but I couldn't find
anything to confirm this. Anyone know what it is/want it?

You are not the only one, I have several of these, and for a change, I
know exactly where they are. What are these things?

I believe I have one also among my MCA cards. The MCA Adapter list has a
couple of DCA cards one of which is a MCA/ISA card, the IRMA 3, a 3270
emulator card, but not the particular one that we each seem to have. A query
on the ps/2 newsgroup would likely elicit a reply.

After I did my own homework ;) I found a visual match at
http://lightning.prohosting.com/~ps2page/cardpicts/looking.htm (warning:
popups!) id number 6E79. It would appear to be a `DCA Irma-3 Convertible
(ISA/MCA 3270 host card)'. Unfortunantly, I don't have the MCA kit.
Still up for grabs, anyone? Sridhar? If there're no taker, I'll probably
pack it up and send it to the NetBSD team.
