Hello,
$500 or **make me an offer** for this PDP-11 equipment...
Here's what PDP-11 stuff I have to sell or donate (to a museum or
charity). I would like to get this equipment to someone who will use
it, as opposed to someone who wants one board or manual and will put
the remainder in a dumpster -- at least that someone should properly
recycle the equipment.
It all must go as a LOT -- no piecemeal sales (just don't have the
time to parcel it out).
You'll need a full-size pickup truck, a industrial-grade hand-truck
and two strong bodies (not including mine -- I'm not that strong).
Most of it was working; I saw the 11/23 system booted and running off
the RL02s, under RT-11 (in 1991, when I obtained it). The 19" rack
has been sitting crated since that time (without any computer
equipment inside) in the damp basement of my house -- I have no idea
of its current condition. Everything else is upstairs in the way --
my wife says "let 'em go"....
1 4'x19" DEC rack
1 single height blank panel
4 sets of sliders
The rack holds 6 single height modules: the CPUs' card cages
are all single height, the disks are all double height. The rack
comes with a filtered, remote-switched power distribution panel.
2 4x9 slot card cages, one 18-bit bus, one 22-bit. Both have
heavy duty power supplies, fans, power/reset/halt switches.
The PDP-11/23 system (all 18-bit, I think):
1 M8186 LSI-11/23 CPU card, MMU but no FP chip.
1 M8059FC 128Kx16bit memory card ?
2 M8044 32Kx16bit memory card
1 M8043 DLV11-J quad serial line controller
1 M8013 RLV11 RL02 disk controller (2 card set)
1 M8014 " " " "
1 M8012YA BVD11YA backplane controller with ROM, clock, etc
The PDP-11/23 PLUS system (looks almost brand-new):
1 M8089 PDP-11/23+ CPU card with MMU, FP and CIS chip sets
1 M8067KB MVS11-P memory, 256Kx22bit
1 8061 RLV12 RL02 disk controller
1 M7957 DZV11-J controller
2 RL02 disk drives
15 RL02 disk packs (10Mb each)
1 RX02 dual 8" disk drive with controller card
1 bus extension card (pushes the card outside the cabinet)
AND:
National Semi Q-bus 22-bit, 512KB memory bought at TCF
BOOKS/SOFTWARE:
Old RT-11 (Version 4.1?) distribution on RL02 and RX02 media
Includes all kernel sources and macro assembler.
Fortran, basic, DIBOL (DEC COBOL) and a few other things
Complete RT-11 manual set (3 feet of binders) plus assorted PDP
data books and other stuff
Complete schematics for an 11/23+ (this is the field set).
BSD2.9 manuals
My docs are all 1983/1984 vintage, which is fine for the boards I
have, but they don't document newer Q-bus stuff.
I'm located in Durham, North Carolina, very close to I-85 (2.5 hours
to Richmond VA, 4+ hours to D.C., 9 hours to NYC by car).
