The overall Chordset dimensions are 5 3/4 for width and 6" for depth. Keys are

Hi Jerry,
I have tried with PDP11GUI, but the first message says "The image
contains only 505856 bytes, but disk has 512512 bytes".
I have written some disks, and have ignored this message, but none of
them is readable under RT-11.
.dir dy0:
?DIR-F-Error reading directory
So I think the DSK f
Digital Group systems are not S100. More to follow tomorrow.

Dunno--but NASA/JPL have tons of this sort of stuff. One problem is
that much of the data is presented with no context. Usually, the tapes
are from some employee who didn't bother to label his or her tapes,
other than with

Well, it is from a limited edition of 20, it does not appear to be in print
other than that, and this page:

makes it sound like the family are unlikely to release it...

It appears that there is a typo in the BA08 which was kindly pointed out to

It's worse than that; there is 'logical' and 'physical' block order, and the

Paul,
I could use a set of the unibus board(s) for a tektronix 4015, having had
accidentally sold my only one. Oops.

Hi all,
maybe someone can help.
I would like to install TCP/IP on my RT-11 system.
