More fun from the CV 32- the CDC fixed SCSI drive sent up smoke signals today.
Does anyone know what the first SMD coming off of the +12v lead is on these guys?
it doesn't look like a fuse, and (in the past) orange smoke seems to mean tantalum
caps.

Can you trace the connections (e.g. with an ohmmeter)? If one side goes
to the +12V line and the other to ground, then it's a very good bet that
it's a decoupling capacitor, probably a tantalum one. The value would not
be particularly critical (I would probably use 47uF or 100uF here).

Greetings.
I purchased a couple weeks ago a metal box full of
unit record docs, forms and cards ($20). Including
Ramac 305 guide and manuals for various collating,
punching, as well as some training manuals. I'd be
happy to have it go to a good home. I've got a
spreadsheet with more details I can send on request.
The box full is very heavy so I would a pickup in the
San Francisco Bay area.
Thanks, Jim

Some of it may not be on bitsavers, so that would be the natural home for
them. If they go on Ebay, they will probably never see the light of
day ever again (gee, I wonder where they would go?).

Hi, James. I would be interested in this.
