Well, now I know what happens when you put a VAX in one. To be honest...the linear supply should've given it away. Yes. Now...I DO need a Q22 box. That leaves me a custom-made BA23 enclosure or a BA123. Well, there are also 3U BA11 Qbus chassis with 22-bit backplanes. And 18-bit ones...which you can turn into 22-bit ones. ;) My first MicroVAX-I ran in one of those, back in the 1980s. I don't have one of those or the spare money for one. ;) If the MicroPDP-11/73 front panel included an LTC I would be set to get RSX-11M+ up with 1M of RAM TONIGHT. I don't have a dedicated clock device. :( Only the 8186, DLV11-J, weird floppy controller thing, SCSI controller, DZQ11, DEQNA/DELQA and a PMI memory baord. None of those have an LTC. :( -Dave -- Cory Smelosky http://gewt.net Personal stuff http://gimme-sympathy.org Projects
