Kenwood VC-1H SSTV communicator pricing request

Hi Gang, I have a Kenwood communicator, I can't imagine many of these were sold in the UK, I have the box, manual, warranty card, data cable. It runs of four double As. Quite a weirdly niche gadget, if not strictly computers. Does anyone have an idea of what a good condition one of these is to

8mm cinemax type film players

Good Evening all, My tape obsession was already slightly out of control, but when I found a create of 8mm reel of family footage and other movies in my 90 something year old grandfather's storage, I need a recommendation on how to play these, we're they standardised? What is the difference

Re: Ibm rs6000 7025-f50

I'd be more than happy to buy it, do you think settling for 4.1.4 when it can run 4.1.5? Probably a patience moment! -H On 27 July 2017 04:00:15 BST, Glen Slick via cctalk wrote: >On Wed, Jul 26, 2017 at 7:15 PM, Cameron Kaiser via cctalk >

Re: Ibm rs6000 7025-f50

I suspect that this machine was moved on because the service contract expired and a shiny new server with a service contract. Interesting method of doing business, although I did play heavy on the student. Maybe I will find a download from a less reputable source, if having the hardware

Ibm rs6000 7025-f50

I have just got a couple of these out of the dumpster, I had to arrange palletised shipping for these monoliths. I was warned they were heavy but I wasn't expecting well, rs6000 heavy. The boot menus are far from intuitive, I have actually had to rtfm. I am yet to get an OS to boot on these

Re: Scsi tape and compatible tapes that are available

I have seen LTO around a lot, with fancy pants usb. For forward compatibility it is probably the best bet it would seem. Though I might get open tape for just because it looks cool, though I might get one for media, rather than raw data storage. -H On 24 July 2017 17:03:29 BST, Al Kossow

Re: Scsi tape and compatible tapes that are available

If you think there's a way I can do backups onto open reel tape and have it last 30 years +, I've been looking for an excuse to get one of those. -H On 24 July 2017 06:20:35 BST, Chuck Guzis via cctalk wrote: >On 07/23/2017 09:05 PM, devin davison via cctalk wrote: >

Re: Scsi tape and compatible tapes that are available

Sony AIT and DDS have been my most popular eBay finds so far, I am blessed with SCSI equipment, even if it is a SS10. My data needs aren't huge, I did see those 1TB tapes and wondered how long it would take my sparcstation to push a terabyte, might be unfair. Seems the resilience of tape is

Sun sparcstation 10 keyboard

Are Sun keyboards of this era still in circulation or is an adaptor a better way to go? Are these keyboards made at all well? Any and all information is appreciated :) http://www.ebay.ca/itm/181822249945 I did find this on eBay, as I have been looking for video out adapter as well? Part of me

db9 requirements

Good Evening all, hope your week is going well. I received a sparcstation 10 today and wondered if anyone knew which db25 cable to get to connect to my DEC vt, null modem, cross over, etc, etc. Also if anyone has experience with this machine I would be happy to take OS recommendations. -H

DEC terminals and classic server computing

I have long had an interest in server tech and "technology with character" I finally took the plunge and got a DEC and I am looking for something of a similar vintage to connect it to. I have read about VAXstations, z80 based mainframes. This seems like the kind of devices I would like to
