Regarding price: there was a sign on the one I used at the University, directed to students obviously: "the HP 8510 is worth more than your life". Besides HP computers, I collect HP instrumentation. Actually the latter hobby created the need for the former, since I got into vintage HP computing

I have a fond memory of these. I am interested. Would they allow me to send a shipper to pick it up for crating and shipping? Marc Sent from my iPad > On Jul 8, 2016, at 1:15 PM, Brent Hilpert wrote: > > So a friend tells me there's a maybe-abandoned HP 8510 Network Analyzer in > the hallway

The 8510 has some versions but I know the B version uses the 69020 and also has a tape unit which is controlled by the TACO processor also used in the 9845/35 series computer. They’re nice instruments but a bit bulky. It contains a display unit and at least the analyser unit to be usefull. -Ri
