Bob,

Yeah.  Please let us know they are available for downloads.  I still need them. 
 
Thanks,
Tim

Subject: RE: [Simh] VAX 8200

  I fired up the 8350 today and (amazingly!) it still works.  Sadly some of my 
disk drives are not so well off, but I was still able to boot it.  I've imaged 
the console RX50, which is an RT11 file system, and the two diagnostic floppies 
("DIAG SUPER" and "UTIL").  Those last two are in Files-11 format.  FWIW, the 
DIAG UTIL floppy contains an image of the EEPROM as copied by the DEC 
diagnostic program.

  I've converted all three diskettes to simh RX50 image files, which I presume 
is the most useful format.  Where would be a good place to archive them for the 
82xx/83xx simulator project?

  BTW, if anybody has any RA7x drives that they'd be willing to part with, 
please let me know.  I'll be eternally in your debt!  Two of the three drives I 
have on that machine appear to have died since I last used it.  Sadly, keeping 
the electronics running is not nearly as hard as keeping the mechanical parts 
going...

Bob
