I'm looking to acquire the following items:
DEC PDP8-E rack header panels, especially items 1, 2 and 4 (rack filler strips)
PC04 paper tape reader & punch. I'd also consider a PC05 - I believe it can be reworked/retrofitted to be a PC04?
TU60 dual cassette tape drive. I have enough DECassettes and the TA8E M8331 controller, just need the drives.
TM8E magtape Omnibus controller modules (M8321, M8322, M8323, M8327)
VR14, VR17, VR20, etc... I'll consider any DEC analog display that works with the VC8E
and the Lab-8/e H945 I/O panel (analog & digital panels)
RL8A cable (BC80J or BC80M). This is the cable that connects the M8319 controller to the first RL01/RL02 drive. I think the BC80M cable can work with the M8319 as well as the BC80J, but if that's not true, please let me know.
Third party DEC Omnibus compatible items:
Shipping to my 98844 address is preferred, but I'd consider a day or two of driving to do pickup for items like a VR14 or PC04.
