Hi all, I'm looking for any software, manuals, photos of hardware - anything really - that relates to the Jerrold Communications / General Instrument analog cable TV headend equipment. (this is on topic, I promise!) Many of their headend "addressable controllers" were built around DEC hardware...

Hi all, Does anyone happen to have a copy of these squirrelled away? - Oregon Pascal M68000 -- cross compiler for VAX (or any other host platform). Probably called "P68.EXE" or something similar. - Oregon / Taumetric M68000 Cross Assembler for VAX (or any other). Probably called "MASM.EXE"...

Does anyone happen to have the following document squirrelled away? MAXTOR LXT-200A TECHNICAL MANUAL 1019707 MAXTOR MXT-1240S OEM TECHNICAL MANUAL 1028044 ... Or any other technical data on the Maxtor LXT or MXT series hard drives. I'm especially looking for any service data, or any...

Hi all, I'm trying to fix a Shugart SA405R full-height 5.25in drive. Failure symptoms are that the drive selects and the main motor runs, but the drive will not seek. I've already replaced the ULN2803 with no change to the symptoms (the new ULN2803 now gets a little warm). The head stepper...

Is anyone looking to part with a 5.25-inch alignment disk -- preferably a double-sided 96tpi one? I'm trying to fix up some drives for a software preservation group, and also benchmark the performance of some of the drives we have. It'd be helpful to have a known good alignment disk I could use...

Hi there, Does anyone happen to have a copy of the Mitsubishi M4853-112MG schematic and/or parts location diagram, covering the NAMFM-7 (P/N U241B954-06-E) PCB? This seems to be a later revision of the M4853-1 drive. I've found a manual for the NAMFG PCB at...

Hi folks, I've just picked up an Archive Python 4320NT, which identifies itself on the bus as an "Archive Python 25501-008 V2.19". Unfortunately the two terminators are missing (RD1 and RD2). The sockets take an eleven pin SIL part, with Pin 1 indicated on the board. Does anyone happen to know...

Hi folks, I'm looking to expand my Acorn Archimedes (A30x0 / RISC PC) collection somewhat. Does anyone have any software, random floppies or similar looking for a good home? I'm interested in just about anything from the core applications and Learning Curve pack to more obscure things like...

Hi, I've just picked up a Kodak/Diconix 150 Plus printer - it was in the £1 Bargain Bin at a local camera shop (of all places) and I needed a printer for my Libretto 110CT, so how could I refuse? Anyway, the problem is, it didn't come with any documentation. Does anyone happen to have a...

Hi, A while ago, I picked up a Polaroid HR-6000 film recorder. This is basically a white box, about half the height of a PC tower, which contains a CRT, controller board and SCSI interface. I've hacked together a sort-of-working Linux driver, but there are still some things I'm stuck on...

Here's one for the PC gurus. I have a 386 PC I'm using as part of the "make the DiscFerret Analyser talk to MFM hard drives" project. The 386's role in this is to put stuff on MFM and RLL drives, which I can then read, analyse and decode with the DiscFerret. Unfortunately the 386 has other...

Hi guys. It's been a while... Hopefully I'm posting this in the right place... :) A few of you are no doubt aware of my activities on the Classiccmp mailing list. Specifically, my pet project -- the DiscFerret magnetic disc analyser. It's basically a souped-up, open-source Catweasel, with a few...

Hi guys, There's been a lot of chatter on the Classiccmp mailing list regarding archiving of floppy disc images, and creating boot discs for systems that use non-standard formats. I've been working on a USB-interfaced disc controller on-and-off for the past year (though it seems longer!), and...
