I have some MINC hardware (also a MINC/23 I think) and software, but it does not look like I have what you are looking for. What I do have images of (except for the one marked "(Bad)" that seem likely MINC related: RX01: CONTENTS COMMENT LAB Applications-11 Library V3 DEC-11-SLABA-C-YB, NSUM=41906 LAB Applications-11 Lib Source 1 of 3 DEC-11-SLABA-C-YA1, NSUM=56190 LAB Applications-11 Lib Source 2 of 3 DEC-11-SLABA-C-YA2, NSUM=28900 LAB Applications-11 Lib Source 3 of 3 DEC-11-SLABA-C-YA3, NSUM=65055 CONTENTS COMMENT PLOT, Ver June '80 DECUS 11-381 RT-11 Media(KA) (Bad) MINC BASIC/FORTRAN IV VIR TERM DECUS 11-417 RT-11, NSUM=22281 PLOTTING PKG For RT-11 FORTRAN DECUS 11-431 RT-11, NSUM=12228 LABORATORY APPLICATIONS-11 1 of 4, (KD) DECUS 11-448 RT-11, NSUM=15424 LABORATORY APPLICATIONS-11 2 of 4, (KD) DECUS 11-448 RT-11, NSUM=1369 LABORATORY APPLICATIONS-11 3 of 4, (KD) DECUS 11-448 RT-11, NSUM=2841 LABORATORY APPLICATIONS-11 4 of 4, (KD) DECUS 11-448 RT-11, NSUM=21353 FEP2: FINITE ELEMENT PROG 3DIM 1 of 2 KB DECUS 11-461 RT-11, NSUM=14187 FEP2: FINITE ELEMENT PROG 3DIM 2 of 2 KB DECUS 11-461 RT-11, NSUM=26552 RX02: CONTENTS COMMENT MINC MA DEMO/23 V2.0 BIN RX2 BA-J837B-BC, NSUM=04649 MINC MA DEMO/03 V2.0 BIN RX2 BA-H107D-BC, NSUM=58263 MINC MA SYS/23 V2.0 BIN RX2 BA-J836B-BC, NSUM=17510 MINC MA SYS/03 V2.0 BIN RX2 BA-H106D-BC, NSUM=61253
