The line about being used with an early computer as a display caught my eye. How would it be used as a display, what kind of graphics capability would it have? is there an interface for the thing for the pdp 11 or a modcomp? Those are the old systems i have on hand that i might be able to interface to it.


Trying to find a good home for it. I just went through the back room and found another of a similar design, ill post back with that one too. I was not even aware i had two of them, quite odd when you can misplace/ miscount something so large.

More of a computer list I know, but I need to clean out and this needs to
go soon. Big ol tektronix scope on a cart. Was part of a community
workshop, i cleared out all their equipment and have not had the time to
repair it. I was planning to go over it and put it to work at my desk, but
i decided to get a bigger desk and don't have the space for it. i picked
up a hp logic analyzer that fits on the desk, and is more than capable for
working on my pdp 11 and other minicomputer stuff.

open to offers, come pick it up and its yours.
