Folks,
I have been able to get the Sun 3/110 to boot using the SCSI2SD board as I
had
asked about earlier (if you want to see the details of what I did, I posted
to the
sun-rescue list...)
However, I can't seem to get more that 4mb to work in the 3/110 chassis (
the 2nd chassis I have is 240v,
Rick,
Thanks for your report on the show!
I used a Wang 360E in college - since it was a scientific calculator and
great for engineering homework!

A friend an I did almost the same thing. We used the transformer primary from
another box as an auto transformer and used a file to grind the motor pulley
down. We did have to file the mounting slots some as well. It worked fine.
This was about 25 years ago.

I ran into an interesting problem. Eric Smith's copytape program assumes two
tape marks in
a row is logical end of tape and stops reading.
I've had problems with this before with MPE store tapes, because
they put two file marks at the start of tape so I just keep reading until
I get 10 errors in

Most all 8 inch drives were synchronous capacitive phased AC motors. That is
until 3 phase low voltage motors started showing up on 5.25 disk drives.
The ac motors on the 8 inch drives rarely had jumper options for 120/240V AC.
Most were fixed voltage and cycles. I can't recall any that I've

The next question is, does anyone have a disk with directory structure and

Hi Jos,
Thanks very much for posting about the NinjaFlex material. That will come
in very handy as my students design robotic parts, although I'm sure it
won't be long before custom-made "rubber" bands will be flying around the
lab, and new-fangled slingshots ("wrist rockets") won't be far
I've seen that cat before but we printed them on a line printer since the
company did not like us using the high quality Diablo for such nonsense.

Hi Glen
Sorry for not replying right away. I've been on the road.
No, I've not gotten the manual. I do have a disk controller board with my
system. I'd have to look back to see what disk controller code was in the ROMs.
I suspect it might just be to read the first bock of data and then expect

On Fri,
So, if anyone wants a CDC 6600 module for their mantle/shelf/etc, here:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/283426116822
is someone selling some for a non-ridiculous amount of money (the latter being
common with this type of thing).
No connection with the seller, other than buying one myself.

No affiliation with the seller, just a strange item to come across
randomly. Digital BC06S cable, which is mentioned in the manual for the
RP05 and possibly others:
