Beautiful! Thank you for the video and congratulations on the restoration! I 
never got to use the console on the University PDP, we didn’t want to waste 
paper and we had electronic terminals by then - 2 disagreeable generics and a 
*gorgeous* Tektronix 4025 (sic?) as well as the hi-res Tek 4010. 

Semi-related, I have about a 4 cm. stack of fan-folded faded green bar in my 
office that I won’t use. Free for shipping from Texas, area code 78254.

Hi Henk,

I have about a third of a box of paper that came with the LA30 when I 
picked it up from surplus many years ago.


I've ordered a new box of paper from labeloutfitters.com (if you search 
"9-7/8" on their site they seem to have green bar and blank).  This was 
something Mattis had searched out.  Price was reasonable, but the 
shipping was expensive :-(


I'll post again after I receive the paper if its the right thing.

cheers,
  --FritzM.

Got the last replacement components I needed for my LA30 restore today,
and finished it up!  Here's a short video of the LA30 connected as
console to my restored PDP-11/45:

That looks really nice. Thumbs up Fritz.
