M8195 SLU died while in use

Hi all, I'm pretty new to PDP-11s. I recently got a PDP-11/73, M8192 CPU, two M8067 RAM, M7195 (2 async SLU card with boot ROMs and an extra 128K of RAM), plus a few other cards which I've removed to try and figure out what is going on. While playing in ODT, the console completely stopped respond

Yeah I just did a commander and chief on Twitter at southwest air. They lost 20k of test gear and their baggage people just didn't give a fook. It's been one of those weekends. Sorry OT. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 24, 2017, at 5:38 PM, Robert via cctalk wrote: > > Nope, but it doesn't hold

Sometime these are stained iron foil boxes, filled with inductors and capacitors, then some gel insulator, and finally soldered

First ... If the following is already known or incorrect then apologies. In my efforts to get an 11/94 running with UniBus cards the following came to light. 1. You need to start with the fact there are _two_ different types of hybrid Uni/Qbus back planes that can go in a BA box. 2. One has
