At 22:32 22-09-98 -0400, Tim Shoppa stated he performed a very important service: e/rqdx3.mfmparameters Thank you from me too, Tim!!!! I'm going to later this fall/winter try to start-up my MicroPDP-11/73 and MicroVAX-II machines (along with an 11/34A, 11/24 and 11/23, maybe the VAX-11/730.) Of course, there are a couple of RD's involved within the uPDP and uVAX here. This info could be extremely important if I need to start from scratch with a 'new' fixed disk like Zane is trying to do. You see, until now, I have never had any PDP-11's or VAXen to work with and, importantly, learn from. Now, the doggone garage is full of those danged things and I intend to keep some of them in my collection. I am to be considered a greenhorn at using/administering DEC machines and things like this that come out help me to ever so slightly add to the bits of info I'm trying to gather/learn. Thanks again, Tim. --Chris -- -- Christian Fandt, Electronic/Electrical Historian Jamestown, NY USA Member of Antique Wireless Association URL: http://www.ggw.org/freenet/a/awa/
