Most of it is just spare parts and those I'm willing to just give away to the first person who picks them up in Milpitas CA USA. Most of this stuff is big and heavy and I absolutely am not willing to ship any of it - sorry. I realize that most of HECnet is not local and so it's probably a waste of your time, but I thought I'd share the list just in case I have that one single item that somebody can't live without. It'd be a shame to see it go to the recyclers if that's the case. There are a few complete systems and peripherals at the end of the list (e.g. 9 track drives) that I'd rather trade for something I can use. I don't really want money for any of it, and in a pinch I could probably be persuaded to give that away too. And just in case you have any doubts as to what I can use, send me an email and I'll send you a wish list :-) Free Stuff ---------- Chassis and parts Several BA23 boxes (floor stand, rack mount, you name it ...) and various related bits Two BA11-L chassis (the short box for the 11/04-34) One H775 power supply for the BA11-L One or two BA11-N chassis (11/03-23) Several short corporate rack end panels, doors, etc A couple of doors for the older, pre-corporate short DEC racks (I forget the H number - sorry!) Rainbow/Pro/DECmate floor stand Spares RA8x spares - motors, starting capacitors, power supplies, etc. No HDAs! VT1xx spares - power supplies, CRTs, etc Extra BA23 power supplies Many LK-xxx keyboards I could use some of these. Hmmmmm. Other A couple of crashed RL02 packs (well, you can always make a clock out of 'em!) one or two DELNIs one DEMPR DECserver-100 Would you be interested in shipping the DS100? Those can t weigh much. Four new rolls of palette wrap Several 874 power controllers H919 20 slot 8/E OMNIBUS backplane 12 slot OMNIBUS PDP-8/A backplane Trade Stuff ----------- DS20E ALPHAserver (incomplete) Cipher F880 9 track drive (Pertec interface) Four DEC TS05 drives (identical to the F880) Two DEC TU81+ 9 track drives (LESI interface) 8 line DECtalk-III IVR system in DF100-RM rack mount enclosure (bad PS) What do you want for that? It might run off an ATX supply. ;) One VAXstation-4000/VLC Various VAXstation-3100s Various VAXstation-2000s DEC2000 (aka the Jensen) missing skins Various DECPCs Various DEC3000
