Yes, LCM had just the console. I left UCLA and moved to CDC land at
UW-Seattle in '78. I don't know what happened to, or replaced, the 360/91.

This was from the 360/91 at UCLA when I was there in the 1970s. I

The US Letter size of folded Versatec paper came in a cardboard box that
was really good for compartmentalizing small stuff and stacking for
storage! I used to scrounge around the waste containers for empty, used
boxes. Still have many in use.

There are numerous Ham Radio groups at Groups.io: https://groups.io
If you know what you are after, search for it. If you're not sure,
search for "ham radio".
I belong to about 44 ham radio groups there.

Are you sure the referenced early PDP-11/10 wasn't really the PDP-11/15?

In 1968-69 my bedroom was right over PDP-8 #6. It's been 50 years, but
