Noel, I can I hope get the backplane and complete 11/44 that goes with it, plus the RK06 or RK07 (I forget which). If you or anyone is really interested I can try to track this one down. I have been trying to get through to the owner, he has not returned my calls, but he's a nice guy and I hope to get the remains of his DEC stuff asap. I was not super enthusiastic about getting a RK06/7 drive for space reasons. Contact me privately if anyone is interested.
I also reached out a guy that has a few complete 8i systems, trying to get those too.
