I think his spacstations were similarly gutted (or at least as advertised with no cpu). Antonio

Saw this "CDC Field Tester" while looking thru the vintage section on ebay. Anyone know what it is / think they can use it? (note: I'm not the seller, nor do I know them). http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5210163831&rd=1&…

It was a pull from Jodrell Bank, I suspect a spare that had been sitting around for a good while and the lack of any test sticker on the mains cable makes me suspect care would be needed powering it up. I said it wasn't worth 50 quid and the seller agreed, said he'd see if he could get the correct cards for it (good luck I thought) and put it up again if it didn't sell, the ebay listing was changed while I was in the shop. I expect it will pop up again but without any cards it's a bit of a boat anchor. I couldn't see a manuf date anywhere on the enclosure, anyone know when 11/03s were last made/sold? -- -- Pete Edwards "Prediction is very difficult, especially if it's about the future" - Niels Bohr
