Actually the TU58 serial port has the differential driver and receivers used
on the later serial ports. It should talk to DECs version of RS423 with no

I finally fixed my H7864 PSU so I can now run my rtVAX 1000. However, I
think the machine is damaging memory boards. I checked the ripple and 5V
looks OK, but 12V looks suspicious. Is the 12V supply used by the memory?

Hi
At the moment I have it connected to an old laptop running msdos
and gizmos driver for same.
Its showing signs of life at 38400. I have BOB in circuit and can see
the commands going to it.
Some times it responds and sometimes it does not.

And we have a runner.. it was set for 19.2k
A quick change of config.sys and off we go.
I have only one cartridge so no tape to tape
Pc to tape works. So now to find one of my systems with a spare serial port

Hi,
has anyone ever heard of Evotek ET-5800 series Winchester
harddisks? I wonder which interface they have. I'm looking
for a replacement of a CDC FINCH 9410 and wonder if they
would be a possible replacement.

Often a spike on a particular output of an SMPSU is caused by a high ESR
capacitor
on that output. It's worth checking them.
FWIW, old DRAMs, up to about 16Kbit size, often used +1

For the time (1982), they were larger than almost any other
ST506-interfaced 5.25' drives.
