A worthy detour on the way to Midwest in the Conmega-bus! Good to meet you
as well as seeing these machines get another shot at life!
Thanks,

I finally dug up the link to the CADR stuff (there?s
probably some other
useful links there as well).

The CADR emulator and all of the microcode and OS (disk) images are in the
download
directory. Even if you don?t use the emulator, if you ever want to get
the CADR running again
you?ll need the microcode and OS images.

Without the console doing much with the CADR is going to be tough. Not
having the
disk isn?t too terrible as the basic contents (uCode and system
code) are available. There?s even an emulator for the CADR though I don?t
have the link handy at the moment. Ping me if you have trouble finding it.
Good luck with the LMIs!
I have several Symbolics machines (3620, 2 3640, 3650) that are more or
less
complete. The 3620 works (at least the last time I powered it on it
did?not enough time to ?play?). At least one of the 3640s has shown signs
of life and the 3650 (which came back to me after a vacation of 10 years
or so) needs some ?love? but it?ll be worth it because in addition to the
normal console it has the ?good? color frame buffer! The biggest issue for
me is consoles. I have 3 but one is in need of repair.

working PDP-11 to debug the CADR with if it gets that far, so
there?s a good chance I should be able to get at least one working.
I?ll post more as things develop.
