the TU58 tape worked perfectly and I was finally able to install DECnet. The
network does come up but goes right down with a synchronizing error. It's
always something it seems. Should be all set once I get that
Hmmm, are these the atex racks seen lurking in the background of that recent
storage space trawl down near Houston?

The 703 area code appears to be in Virginia near DC, so that might be a

Many years ago I gave away some PDP 11/60 hardware to someone on this

discovered a stack of various print sets that I believe went with that
system and would like to send them along. If you recall that long past
