Re: HP 9816 logging and skyline software -- any interest?

Dave - I have a 9817 I’m trying to get working.  I have the display working and 
a keyboard but no HIL cable yet.  No mass storage, either so I’m looking for a 
9121 or similar HP-IB drive.  I’d be happy to assume responsibility for the 
software you have / pay for shipping, etc.
The 9817 identifies as a 9816 on the ROM splash screen but I’m speculating it 
will run.  I have 1 meg of RAM available and the composite video.

As part of the "scan it all" camp, I'd say it should be preserved
(tapes/disks, too).  IIRC, you are in the UK?  Are you set up to do
the scans?


HP 9816 logging and skyline software -- any interest?

Hi Folks!
I have documentation for some forestry software, that came with my HP9816 
machines.  I am not sure, but I may have a tape or disk to go with it.
It's called "MSAP", for Multispan Skyline Analysis Program, and appears to be a 
successor to the software documented in the following links:
http://bit.ly/2EjAC0N
http://bit.ly/2CFp2wk

I have no use for it, but it seems like it may be of historical value.  Would 
anyone here be interested in it?
