It just came to my attention that a pair of RP07 drives in the north of
Sweden needs a new home. One functional, the other in unknown state.
If anyone is near (unlikely) or interested in a long drive (very long),
let me know.
Messages have been passed to several parties, so if several are
interested, we'll sort things out at that point.

I've been working out a deal with Ragge and several others for a
few weeks now after announcing on CC-tech.
I and Ragge strongly prefer that you go through me.
The RP07 are still unclaimed and so is a lot more. Let me know
if you are seriously interested and I'll fill you in and include
you in future talks.

Hi
I realize now that I might have worded the above a bit strong. You are
welcome to spread this as much as you want. But it will probably benefit
all if I'm in the loop.
Anyway, now that I have a proper keyboard (not just my phones onscreen
one) I can give you some more details. It's the computer club in Lule?
that is cleaning out old "junk". Here are some pictures:
http://brain.brokenbrain.se/skrot_dh1/
Take a break and look at them now.
Now that you are back, here is what is shown, more or less.
Spoken for:
* DECsystem 5500
* Nord-10 crates
* ND-100 cards
* HAWK-disks
* Terminalen for Nord-10
* 10-20 1/2" band
* A bunch of cabling, docs and 5 1/4" floppies with software for Nord computers.
* DEC 8400
* DEC PRO380
* RA72
* Unibus och BiBus-kort and some XMI.
* RX01 -floppies
* 4000/500
* 4000/90 (memory removed)
* infoserver 100
* 2 * R215F
* RX01/02-floppies
* 11/750 without PSU
Probably spoken for (we are working out the shipping details):
* DEC 8400
* MicroVAX 8354
* TU81 /w RA82
Not spoken for:
* 4000/60
* 1/2" tapes (lot of them)
* Two RA90's
* MV3900 /w RA82 and RL02 on top.
* VAXstation 3100
* VAXserver 3100
* Two Vaxstation 3100/76
* HSC90
* Two RP07, one spare part.
* MikroVAX 3800
* MicroVAX only marked 640QR?
* Lots of CI and SDI cabling.
* 4000/300 (looked empty unfortunately)
Before you ask the brief case with test equipment on picture
20150407_100342.jpg is an alignment tool for an RP06 and Ragge will keep it.
Regarding shipping, there are two cars going from Lule? to Uppsala that
can bring a moderate amount of gear.
I'll answer any questions you might have as best I can.
Regards,
Pontus.
10:18 p.m.
Hi,
I'm interested in some of the stuff. The RP07 would be one of them.
How should we go forward with the discussion?

I'm just about to hit the sack. I'll send a mail to you, Ragge

Will you be able to pick it up?

If that Pro380 is actually a "VAXconsole" system, and if its new home
won't see it used as such, I would very much like to get ahold of the
VAXconsole board, cabling assembly, and software (if any).

It is and the machine will end up with me. And since it is
unlikely that I'll ever have an 8800(I think thats the model) I
wouldn't mind parting with the "extra" bits.
Do you have a machine to use it with?

Excellent, thank you!

I do not, but a friend has an 8700, for which the console system was
lost. (and all of its power supplies, but that's a different problem)
