I'd be very interested to see those once scanned.  I haven't gotten to the 
interface card yet; so far I've just been working on cleanup and checkout of 
the LA30 itself.  Reformed the power supply electrolytics and replaced the PCB 
cap in the ferro-resonant circuit.  Checked that all the pins on the print head 
are free and functioning.  So, so far so good.  Nice to make contact with the 
other members of the LA30 club!

   cheers,

Yes. That's right. Have a LA30P with a LC11. BTW. I have LC11 manual and
drawings. But they are for the older M791. At least a bit helpful. Not
scanned yet.

Henk got my second LA30. But one need a M7731 board as well to make it
serial. The M7389 alone is not enough unfortunately.



Yup, and I still am very happy that I decided to drive in total some
3200 km “just” to pick up one LA30. It was worth the long trip
and stay in 3 hotels, because Mattis also gave me a tour along his
collection. Fantastic  and very cool things I had never seen before !

Good to know that I need to look out for an other board! I quickly
responded to Noel’s offer, without knowing that I needed yet an
other module. But if I had skipped Noel’s offer and found the M7731
(in the future) then I would have the “problem” of the missing M7389 …
Collecting is a matter of time and patience. There is no joy in getting
everything “overnight”.

Mine is a P, and I have the matching M7910 to go with it, so no need for 
an M7389 here (sounds like Henk really wanted it anyway!)

Hi, all, just got one of these in a group of stuff, and I have no LA30, and
thus no need for it. Anyone out there have an LA30? :-)

I would love to get my hands on this interface.
