Hi,
Another lot of equipment that needs to be disposed of I am afraid.
Free to a good home. To be collected from Gloucester (UK) by prior arrangement. I suggest a suitable donation to https://prostatecanceruk.org/. This is the charity that the company disposing of the equipment is currently supporting.
I do travel occasionally from Gloucester to Lancaster on the M5/M6. If the equipment will fit comfortably in the boot of a car, I could drop off by arrangement - but my preference would be for collection from Gloucester.
The following equipment is available:
2 off MicroVAX 3100 table-top machines. Each is equipped with a RZ26L 1.05GB disk and a TZ5 tape drive. The SCSI drive has been erased. One machine is equipped with a KA41-D V1.0 CPU and the other a KA41-A V1.4 CPU. The latter machine displays the message "?21 CORRPTN" when entering the >>> prompt. Apart from that both machines appear to work.
2 off printers for the above MicroVAX machines.
1 off Digital TS05 1/2" magnetic tape drive. This takes tapes horizontally and is self loading.
1 off Kennedy Model 9612 1/2" magnetic tape drive. This also takes tapes horizontally and is self loading. More buttons and lamps than the TS05!
Both of the 1/2" magnetic tape drive units have not been powered up. No cables or controllers - although I may be able to locate some QBUS controllers if I look hard enough in my four cardboard boxes full of QBUS cards...
9 off DECserver 200/MC units.
4 off DECserver 200/DL units.
3 off DECserver 300 units.
2 off Digital ThinWire Ethernet Single Port Repeater units.
3 off DELNI units.
1 off BICC DATA NETWORKS ISOLAN PRIMARY BRIDGE TYPE 1400-0 unit.
2 off BICC DATA NETWORKS FAN-OUT (AUI) units.
1 off BICC DATA NETWORKS FAN-OUT Type 1130-1 unit.
1 off BICC DATA NETWORKS REPEATER Type 1120 unit.
1 off CISCO 2500 series (2513) unit.
Some of the above are rackmount, some not. Some are 110V some will be 240V.
I will also have a MicroVAX 3300 640QR-B3 in a BA215 (CPU MOD KA640). This powers up to the >>> prompt and is equipped with an RA82 disk and a TK70 tape. I am required to erase the disk prior to the equipment being taken.
Also available is a MicroVAX 3400 640Q5-B3 in a BA213 (CPU MOD KA640). This also powers up to the >>> prompt and is equipped with two off RF30 DSSI disks and a TK70 tape (I am going from memory regarding the TK70). I am required to erase the disks prior to the equipment being taken.
I also have a 'gutted' MicroVAX chassis (Model VS60S-A3 in a BA213, cards removed and no front panel) with two off H7868-B Power Supply Units (the -B indicating 240V).
I also have various peripheral devices to dispose of and what is left of my stock of PDP-11 QBUS cards. I will post a list of these later.
All items *** MUST *** go before April 2022 - otherwise it will go to the recyclers I am afraid.
Direct Message me if interested please.
