I had an identical GA SPC-16, except mine had two Western Dynex 6000 drives 
with packs similar
in appearance to RL02's (I don't think they were, just looked the same). Also 
had two card readers
and an ASR33 and it had DBOS(?) Disk/Drum OS. The decks of cards had 
calculations for grains and
cereals as it was installed at a breakfast cereal manufacturer.

With the help of an old schoolfriend and his dad we lugged the machine down a 
few flights of narrow
stairs in a block of flats (there was no lift), into a trailer for the cross 
town trip and back to my
place (another flat) at the time. It was fairly heavy, although taking the 
drives out helped a bit.
