My workshop is the exact same style of steel arch building as your hangar, but mine is a lot more full of junk than your hangar is! :D -- Mark J. Blair http://www.nf6x.net/

Re: Fall cleaning - 9-track drives available
I'm sure relieved that you didn't say "DEC TU77 drive" and "near Riverside, CA", because I lack spare cash, empty floor space, and impulse control! :) -- Mark J. Blair http://www.nf6x.net/

Re: Fall cleaning - 9-track drives available
Too far? Road trip? I'm crying here (Sydney Australia.) I have a couple of HP 7970B's (and the sevice manual) though not yet running. But I have no 1600 bpi drives. Oh well...

Re: Fall cleaning - 9-track drives available
I could use a small rack but I think Santa Cruz, CA is a bit too far for a road trip from NEPA. :-) (I really regret giving all my racks but one away!!) bill On 09/21/2018 10:44 PM, Bob Rosenbloom via cctalk wrote: > I have four 9-track tape drives, and a dirty DEC rack, that I need to > get rid of. > > Two of the drives are HP 7970B's.

Fall cleaning - 9-track drives available
I have four 9-track tape drives, and a dirty DEC rack, that I need to get rid of. Two of the drives are HP 7970B's. One has the door unattached. Then there's a Kennedy 9100 800/1600 bpi drive. Very heavy. As found, none tested by me. Just don't have time to play with them. Last is a CDC drive complete with an AST clone PC with an Overland Data controller and software. This was running a few years ago but has not been used since. Has Media Master format conversion software also. There's also a smallish DEC rack. Could use the top painted but otherwise not too bad. Includes four sets of rack slides. All are located in Santa Cruz, CA and need to be gone soon, I need the room in my hangar. Come get them!
